Rosdeep Adekoya was led from the property in Glasgow by a number of police officers.
Cops removed child killer Rosdeep Adekoya from a house in Glasgow after it was swarmed by protesters. Adekoya, 41, beat her son Mikaeel Kular, three, to death before hiding his body in a suitcase in January 2014.
She was sentenced to 11 years in jail but served just six before her release from Cornton Vale in April of 2021. Protesters turned up at the house in the city’s East End on Monday night after being alerted by locals and demanded that she was removed from the area.
Footage shows Adekoya being led out of the house in the Greenfield area by uniformed police officers on Monday, July 6. Two women are by her side but their identity remains unclear.
She is led into the back of a police car before it sped away from the area and locals can be heard heckling. One yelled “you f***ing monster” and another shouted “child killer.”
Speaking to the Record a local source explained Adekoya had been in the area for months.
He said: “She has been here a good few months but was rarely seen in public. Some locals knew she was here but once the wider community found out about this it was just a matter of time before something like this happened.
“There are loads of kids living in this street and there is a swing park right next to where she was living so people just weren’t going to tolerate her living here.
“Word had been spreading online about her but thankfully the protest was fairly peaceful so we just hope she isn’t returned and we can move on from this.”
After her release from jail, she failed in a court bid to win lifelong anonymity after a legal challenge led by the Daily Record.
Adekoya raised a petition at the Court of Session in a bid to win lifelong anonymity similar to James Bulger killers Robert Thompson and Jon Venables. She argued her safety was at risk due to media reports but was unable to provide evidence of threats.
Adekoya admitted the culpable homicide of her three-year-old son. The Crown dropped a charge of murder against her, saying they accepted she had no intention to kill.
She battered Mikaeel viciously and repeatedly, inflicting more than 40 wounds. Adekoya allowed him to die in agony over three days in January, then dumped his body and reported him missing, setting off a huge search.
The High Court in Edinburgh was told he was left to suffer because she refused to get him medical help, fearing her cruelty would be exposed. After his death, Adekoya stuffed his body in a suitcase and drove close to her former home in Kirkcaldy, Fife, where she dumped it.
The boy was found to have more than 40 separate injuries and died from blunt force trauma to the abdomen. He also suffered peritonitis which was caused by an injury to the back of the bowel which ruptured.
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “Around 9.55pm on Monday, 6 July, 2026, we received a report of a crowd having gathered outside a property in Glasgow.
“Officers attended and engaged with the crowd who later dispersed. No arrests were made.”
