Back to EpisodesThe Sameena Imam Murder: Secret Affairs Chloroform Plots and the Cooper Brothers
Description
In this UK true crime episode, we tell the devastating story of Sameena Imam, a 34-year-old Costco marketing manager whose “secret” relationship with Roger Cooper ended in calculated violence. Investigators and prosecutors said Cooper wanted the affair kept hidden—and when the truth threatened to surface, he and his brother David Cooper carried out a plan that led to Sameena’s death.
We follow the timeline from Christmas Eve 2014, when Sameena was last seen after leaving work, through the widening missing-person inquiry that became a murder investigation. You’ll hear how detectives pieced together movements, evidence, and communications—and how police ultimately located Sameena’s body buried at an allotment off Groby Road in Leicester. We also cover the forensic case presented at trial, including chloroform and reports of toxic elements detected during post-mortem testing, before the final chapter: the Cooper brothers’ murder convictions and life sentences.
