Nathan Mann guilty of \u2018cowardly attack\u2019<\/b><\/p>\n
\"\"A MAN who killed two \u201cdefenceless\u201d women at a Leicester nursing home has pleaded guilty to murder.<\/strong><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

20-year-old Nathan Mann attacked and killed Rashmi Badiani, 56, and Radhaben Chauhan, 72, as they slept in their room at the Hayes Park Nursing Home, Leicester last November. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

He pleaded guilty to murder at Nottingham Crown Court today and will be sentenced on Wednesday.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

The two women were residents at the Hayes Park Nursing Home on Cropthorne Avenue on the Rowlatts Hill Estate, Leicester.\u00a0 <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

They were found dead in the room that they shared at the home shortly before 4am on Wednesday November 7, 2007 by a member of staff conducting a routine check.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

The officer who led the police investigation, Detective Chief Inspector Phil Smith described the attack as \u201ccowardly\u201d.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

He said: “Mann is a violent and dangerous individual.\u00a0 He took the lives of two defenceless vulnerable women in an unprovoked and cowardly attack as they lay in their beds.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

“This was a horrific incident that has devastated two families now united in grief.\u00a0 Today’s guilty plea has spared them the distress that a full trial would bring and I hope that once the sentence is handed out by the judge they will be able to begin to rebuild their lives.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\"\"“This was an intensive investigation, particularly in the early stages.\u00a0 The investigating team worked tirelessly to find the evidence needed and I would like to praise them for their dedication.” <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Mr Lawrence English, Leicester Crown Prosecution Service Trials Unit Head, added: “This was a difficult and distressing case where the police displayed great dedication in their determination to bring the perpetrator to justice. The CPS worked closely with the Police from the outset as a Prosecution team.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

“Our thoughts today are with the two families who have suffered greatly as a result of these horrific crimes but we hope that these convictions have brought some measure of justice for their loved ones.”<\/div>\n
