Nasen Saadi: life imprisonment after the Bournemouth beach attack

Amie Gray was murdered and Leanne Miles survived an attempted murder in May 2024.

The case

Nasen Saadi attacked Amie Gray and Leanne Miles on Durley Chine beach, Bournemouth, on 24 May 2024. Gray died; Miles escaped with serious injuries.

Evidence and court findings

The CPS described victims selected on the night after extensive research and visits to the area. CCTV, travel and booking records, witness evidence and expert comparisons linked Saadi to the attack. The jury convicted him of murder and attempted murder. He also admitted refusing to disclose access information for his phone.

The sentence

On 28 March 2025, Winchester Crown Court imposed life imprisonment. The judgment specifies a minimum of 39 years and 65 days after remand credit, plus concurrent sentences. A later parole assessment, rather than the passage of that time alone, determines release.
