'I felt like my time was running out and no matter what I did I couldn't escape him'
Every time Alisha left the house to meet her ex-boyfriend, she'd hug her family that bit tighter. She had no idea what would be waiting for her when she arrived.
During a sentencing hearing at Manchester Crown Square, Crown Court this week, Kabenge, 20, from Newton Heath, was also made subject of an indefinite restraining order, meaning he'll never be able to contact her again. He also tried to force her to get a tattoo, told her to set up an Only Fans account, and threatened to publish intimate pictures of her on the internet.
A few months into their relationship, the pair had split up. But when Kabenge booked a romantic night away at a hotel, Alisha agreed to meet him. It was here that he attacked her, the court heard. "I felt like my time was running out and no matter what I did I couldn't escape him. I had no control over the situation. I hated myself. He made it so hard for me to be able to like myself when he was constantly picking up flaws."
