Story summary
In December 2025, Isleworth Crown Court heard testimony about a stalker case involving Leon Khan, who was accused of harassing and sending songs to an NHS health worker named Sylwia Anczakowska. Khan, a former patient at St Bernard’s Hospital in Southall, west London, allegedly sent Ms Anczakowska around 50 emails and 17 songs over a period of 20 months after she cared for him as a health care facilitator on the Derby ward. When she blocked his Facebook message asking if he was "a d*head," Khan reportedly threatened her employer, Asif Hussain, stating that he would send threats or harm to their business, Car Planet**. The court heard that after Ms Anczakowska reported him, she was reassigned to a role without patient contact. Khan's actions included sending a Harrods gift card, which she did not accept, and making repeated phone calls to her work to pressure her into complying with his demands.
