A drill rapper who was jailed for kidnapping and torturing a 16-year-old boy smugly posed in a £140,000 Land Rover just hours after being freed from prison early. 

Isaac Donkah, a gang member and drill music artist from Newham, east London, was jailed in April 2019 for kidnapping the schoolboy a year earlier, after he posted videos of the horrific ordeal on Snapchat. 

The thug, known by his street name Young Dizz, was also accused of grooming young gang members by offering them free food before encouraging them to carry out attacks on rivals in the east London area.

Donkah was sentenced to more than six years in prison but was released earlier this week along with 1,200 other convicts as part of Labour’s early prison release scheme.

Yesterday he posted a picture on X where he smugly posed in a £140,000 Armoured Edition Land Rover in a multi storey car park, with the caption: Came home to an armoured truck, you can never be too careful.

He also posted a video on TikTok, posing outside the same Land Rover, where he told his 12,000 followers: Mans looking different, Im feeling this one still.

TikTok users seemingly aware of the drill rappers previous crimes were shocked to find out he had been released. 

One commenter questioned how is this possible? while another wrote: HOW???? Are they aware that you left??

Another TikTok user took a swipe at the government for allowing so many criminals to be set free. They said: The government is moving too loose they releasing all the villains for a final battle.

Donkah is one of more than 1,200 convicts to have served 40 per cent of their sentences which are being freed under a scheme to tackle prison overcrowding.

Many of those being released lavished praise on the Prime Minister for letting them out early, despite Sir Keir saying he shares the publics anger at such celebrations..

During his trial, the court heard how Donkoh had previously enlisted the help of one of the 16-year-old defendants who knew the victim.

On the night of August 2, 2018, the 16-year-old made contact with the victim, suggesting they meet in Barking.

The victim turned up as agreed and a short time later a dark blue Ford Mondeo pulled up, with Donkoh driving and the four other youths in the passenger seats.

The victim was punched in the head and body and ordered into the vehicle.

He was threatened with a machete and, once in the car, two plastic bags were put over his head and secured with an elastic band.

In evidence, the victim stated that at this point, I thought they were probably gonna kill me.

Donkoh then drove the car to the home of one of the 14-year-old defendants.

On arrival, Donkoh told the victim that the gang were in possession of a gun and two knives.

The victim was held for approximately two hours at the address and subjected to a violent and humiliating ordeal.

He was forced to strip naked whilst Donkoh filmed him on his iPhone and threatened to cut him up if he did not do so.

The men hit him with a metal pole over his face, back, legs and arms and his hair was forcibly cut with scissors, during which time he was slapped in the face, forced to kneel and kicked hard in the head.

Donkoh tried to pour boiling water over the victims head, resulting in scalding the victims feet, causing serious injury.

The victim tried removing his socks but Donkoh would not allow him to. He was also forced to swallow a cannabis joint, kicked in the face and threatened with scissors, all incidents which Donkoh filmed on his phone.

The victim was forced to call his parents and beg for £1500 in order to secure his release.

A bag was then placed back over the victims head and he was ordered not to speak to police. He was taken back out to the car and released not far from where he had been kidnapped.

An investigation was launched by the Trident and Area Crime Command, and along with local officers from the gangs unit quickly identified Donkoh and his accomplices.

Detective Chief Inspector Jim McKee, formerly of Trident who led the investigation, said: This was an extremely violent incident, which has had a profoundly distressing impact on the victim and his family. 

Whilst the physical scars of that night have started to heal, I believe the psychological impact on the victim has been lasting.

Donkoh fronted drill music videos for his gang which goaded rivals and recruited boys as young as 14 to commit serious violence. 

I believe that removing Donkoh from the streets of Newham has done a great deal to reduce serious violence in the borough, as we identified a direct correlation between his drill videos which glorified violence and shootings and stabbings on the streets.
