Scottish Court Imposes Historic Travel Ban on Torturer Kevin Booth

Kevin Booth, a Scottish millionaire, has received the first global travel ban from a Scottish court due to his systematic abuse of vulnerable women at his Lochdhu Lodge in Caithness. Over several years, Booth subjected women to violent 'punishment beatings' in a hidden underground chamber, which features a trapdoor, an empty coffin, and other disturbing artifacts. The court heard evidence of Booth filming his assaults, including an 18-minute video showing a terrified woman who was restrained and tortured. This unprecedented travel ban, lasting five years, was imposed to prevent him from exploiting women abroad, as police highlighted the need to monitor his activities. The case underscores a broader concern of human trafficking and exploitation, with the court ruling affirming Booth's actions amounted to severe criminal conduct. Authorities are now working to ensure the safety of potential victims.
