A millionaire landlady who kept a 'domestic slave' who she punched, kicked and slapped has been forced to pay her £200,000 in wages and benefits.
Farzana Kausar, 58, hired the vulnerable woman and then took control of every aspect of her life.
For 16 years Jacqueline Whittington, 60, was forced to work 14 hour days, cooking, cleaning and looking after Kausar's three young children.
When she was displeased with her, Kausar would punch, kick, slap and verbally abuse Miss Whittington.
Not only did the landlady not pay her anything for the 'years of drudgery' she also took her benefits money.
Farzana Kausar, 59, was locked up for six years and eight months in December 2022 after she was convicted of keeping a person in slavery and attempting to pervert the court of justice

In December 2022 Kausar was jailed for six years and eight months after she was found guilty of keeping a person in slavery or servitude.
Judge Christine Laing KC, telling her: 'You exploited that vulnerability and had a wholly conceited disregard for her as a person. You exerted more and more control over her.'
Now Kausar, of Worthing, East Sussex has paid back Miss Whittington £200,000 owed in wages and benefits.
The wealthy landlady had to sell a property to pay the victim back or face another 30 months behind bars. She has now settled the order.
Adrian Foster, Head of the CPS Proceeds of Crime Division, said: 'Millionaire Farzana Kausar subjected a vulnerable woman to a campaign of abuse and took complete control over her life, stripping her of her freedom over 16 years and exploiting her for her own profit.
'We robustly pursued Kausar for her criminal benefit, and I hope these reparations can go some way to compensate the victim.
Lewes Crown Court heard Kausar was a wealthy woman who owned several prestigious properties
