EXCLUSIVE Revealed: The ad to rope in children for British paedo's 'fake Disneyland wedding' - where kids as young as five were offered 200 euros to take part
Londoner Jaskarn or 'Jacky' Jhaj, 39, was arrested after paying £111,000 to stage the vile fake event at the fairlytale Sleeping Beauty castle, featuring musicians, a cake and chairs for hundreds of 'guests'.
Fantasist Jhaj, who has a track record of elaborate, bad-taste hoaxes, was jailed for four years in 2016 for grooming and sexually assaulting two 15-year-old schoolgirls, MailOnline previously revealed.
Now, a bizarre Facebook advert offering children as young as five 200 euros to take part in the Disneyland stunt has come to light, calling for 100 kids to attend the 'high-end wedding rehearsal'.
The ad explicitly states that guests must maintain 'absolute confidentiality', and would have to 'stand up, sit, applaud and play their part in this prestigious gathering'.
It was posted by a woman named Christelle Ka, who bills herself as 'actor and TV host' and runs firm Cristal Communications. Her link to Jhaj remains unclear.
The offer included a private bus service to take 'guests' from the centre of Paris to the event.
Those who attended were required to wear a 'very elegant evening outfit', such as a 'suit, evening dress or tuxedo', according to the ad.
The disturbing advert used to rope in children for a convicted British paedophile's fake wedding to a nine-year-old girl at Disneyland Paris has been revealed
Jhaj has been charged with fraud, breach of trust, money laundering and identity theft, French prosecutors said last night.
Posing as the 22-year-old 'groom', Jhaj hired professional make-up artists to disguise his appearance, according to police sources in Paris.
Jhaj was jailed for four years in 2016 for grooming and sexually assaulting two 15-year-old schoolgirls, MailOnline revealed last night.
He lured them to parties by pretending to be a top Hollywood film producer and plying them with alcohol.
Last year, he organised a mysterious fake funeral with an empty coffin, even hiring extras as mourners at the famous London Oratory in Brompton Road, Knightsbridge.
The sex offender was also behind a similarly bizarre event in 2023 when a fake red carpet scene was shot in London's West End with 90 children and dozens more teenage extras hired to provide a crowd for the filming.
Child actors as young as six were recruited as extras dressed in school uniforms and asked to pretend to faint as Jhaj paraded up and down wearing a red tuxedo as if he were a film star at a premier outside the Odeon Luxe cinema in Leicester Square.
He was arrested following the phony movie premiere on suspicion of breaching a sexual harm prevention order and was released on bail.
Jhaj, who poses as a film producer, was subsequently fined £1,500 at Isleworth Crown Court last July for breaching notification requirements and a sexual harm prevention order.
The source of funding for his expensive set-ups is a mystery.

Strictly's Stacey Dooley warns daughter 'they'll take me off you' after ordeal with Kevin
Strictly's Stacey Dooley warns daughter 'they'll take me off you' after ordeal with Kevin Stacey Dooley and Kevin Clifton got into a relationship after winning Strictly Come Dancing in 2018, and now, the couple share their young daughter Minnie, who caused a 'drama' for her parents this weekend Kevin Clifton and Stacey Dooley (Image: Helen Murray) Stacey Dooley had to issue a warning to her daughter Minnie on Saturday morning, after the two-year-old went through "a couple of meltdowns" before heading into London with her parents to promote their roles in 2:22 - A Ghost Story. Stacey and her partner Kevin Clifton, who met and fell in love after lifting Strictly Come Dancing's Glitterball Trophy together in 2018, were due to appear on Zoe Ball's BBC Radio 2 show in the afternoon to discuss their UK-wide tour of the West End hit. However, the day didn't get off to the best start, with Zoe explaining to listeners that her guests had been through "a dramatic morning", leading to "lots of people running around" behind-the-scenes trying to rectify the situation before they went on air. Welcoming the couple onto her show, Zoe shared: "I am thrilled to say that they've just about made it. But it's been a dramatic morning for our guests today, an awful lot has happened, but they're here now, it's Dooley and Clifton!" The poster for 2.22: A Ghost Story UK tour, starring the couple (Image: DAILY EXPRESS) Following their introduction, Stacey candidly opened up about the ordeal the trio had been through to make it onto Radio 2. The documentary filmmaker admitted: "I've just been painfully predictable this morning." The problems started when Minnie refused to have a shower, with Stacey confessing she had to issue her daughter with a warning, as her face was covered in food. She recalled: "We've had a couple of meltdowns at about 8 o'clock this morning, which was really fun, and then we didn't want to shower, 'I don't want a morning shower', and I said, 'you've got ravioli around your face baby, they'll take me off you!'" The drama didn't stop there, as when Stacey, Kevin, and Minnie arrived at Broadcasting House, the BBC presenter "got stuck" while trying to make her way up to Zoe's radio studio. Kevin Clifton pictured with his and Stacey's daughter, Minnie Stacey continued: "And then I got stuck in the stair lift, and your amazing producer came to save me," to which Zoe responded by telling Kevin: "There was lots of people running around past the glass Kev, and I was like, 'what's going down'?" Sharing his version of events, professional dancer Kevin said: "They were all looking for Stacey's phone, because she lost her phone downstairs, and, as we know, Stace will not get in a lift and we're, like, on the top floor of the building here. "So they had to find some secret passage to get Stacey up the stairs, it's been a real journey to get here." Kevin Clifton and Stacey Dooley first met on Strictly in 2018 (Image: BBC) Stacey cheekily interjected by joking: "I'm no hassle! I'm no hassle," with Zoe quipping: "You knew this when you got involved Kev, you knew what you were getting involved in..." Article continues below Kevin laughed and replied: "Yeah, I've got these two manic redheads who are making my life really dramatic!" 2:22 - A Ghost Story will mark the first time Stacey and Kevin have worked together since their Strictly stint, taking on the roles of Jenny and Sam in the supernatural thriller. Former Strictly pro Kevin originally shared the news via an Instagram photo of the couple, which he posted alongside the caption: "Day 1 back working with this little fella again. Last time was 7 years ago @sjdooley @222aghoststory."

Secret investigation finds shops tell customers how to illegally use glue traps
Shops across England selling cruel glue traps are telling customers how to illegally use them, an undercover investigation has revealed. Pet cats, hedgehogs and wild birds have all been accidentally caught on the devices, and heartbreaking photos of the animals that suffered struggling to free themselves have prompted widespread outrage. In 2020 a black-and-white cat had to be put down after becoming stuck to four glue traps that left him in pain with 'horrific' injuries. In 2021, a baby fox became stuck on a glue trap in Edinburgh, leaving his skin and fur badly damaged, and rescuers spent hours removing the glue to save the animal. Glue traps are designed to catch – but not kill – rats and mice. They struggle for hours or days on the ultra-strong adhesive, and some tear or bite off limbs trying to escape. The rodents often suffocate from glue clogging up their mouth or nose, or die from dehydration, starvation or exhaustion. Just over a year ago, using a glue trap without a licence was banned, and offenders could be fined or jailed – but selling the traps remains legal. Hundreds of thousands are sold every year in the UK, Parliament was told during a debate before the ban. Last year, the RSPCA received 40 reports of animals stuck on glue traps, and in the previous five years received more than 200 reports. The animals stuck included wild birds, hedgehogs and pet cats. Charity Humane World for Animals UK, which carried out an undercover investigation, says it believes hundreds of stores are still selling them – even though it's a now criminal offence for customers to use them. Shoppers for the charity visited or called 50 independent DIY or hardware stores selected at random in England, and found that 23 of them – 42 per cent – sold the traps to the public. Prices ranged from just £1 a pack in Manchester to £3.99 in London, with an average of around £2. None of the shops selling them told the investigators it was illegal to use the traps without a pest-control licence. All 23 shops said it would be fine to set the trap outside, despite the risk of birds and cats becoming painfully and fatally stuck. When the shoppers asked what they should do with mice stuck to the trap, nine shop assistants suggested the animals could be thrown away alive on the trap, which would be a criminal offence, the charity said. Two stores selling traps – one in East Yorkshire and one in Norfolk – referred to stories of animals chewing off their own limbs trying to escape. A shop assistant in East Sussex, when asked how a trapped mouse might be killed, said: 'I would normally just roll it up and drown it.' One shop assistant admitted that would not be 'kind'. Based on the 42 per cent, the researchers estimate that of England's 3,000 independent hardware stores, about 1,260 sell glue traps. Humane World for Animals UK, formerly Humane Society International UK, which is calling for a ban on sales of the gadgets, said it believed most shop staff were simply unaware of the law. The charity's Claire Bass said it was likely that hundreds of shops were 'selling cruel glue traps to members of the public who may be unaware that they could face criminal charges if they use them'. 'It's especially concerning that some shopkeepers are suggesting to people that they could leave animals on the traps to die slowly in a bin, or even drown them, both of which would be offences under the Animal Welfare Act,' she said. The legal loophole made a mockery of the licensing scheme for professional pest-controllers, Ms Bass added. Of five stores surveyed in Wales, none sold glue traps and all explained that they were illegal and/or cruel and suggested more humane alternatives, the secret shoppers reported. The British Pest Controllers Association has urged the UK, Welsh and Scottish governments to ban glue trap sales to the public. The UK's three big DIY chains do not sell glue traps for mice or rats. A spokesperson for the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs said: 'We always look to minimise the unnecessary suffering of animals, and last year it was made an offence to use glue traps to capture rodents, unless doing so under a licence with strict conditions governing their use.' The British Independent Retailers Association has advice online for retailers on preventing glue traps from being sold for illegal use.

A school in Cambridge said it is 'deeply saddened' after one of its students was murdered in the city outside luxury flats near the railway station. EF International Language Campuses Cambridge, a private school offering English language courses to overseas students, said they are 'working closely with the local police' after a 20-year-old student was 'fatally injured' on Friday.
