A mentally ill man has been detained indefinitely in a high-security psychiatric hospital after he admitted killing a Colombian woman in her west London flat.
Robert Richard Fraser, 40, was charged with murdering Maria Duque-Tunjano on 28 January.
Prosecutor Simon Denison QC accepted a plea of guilty to manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility.
Ms Duque-Tunjano, 48, was working as an escort to help support family members in Colombia and in the UK.
Her battered body was found in her flat still dressed in the black corset and high heels she had changed into after agreeing to entertain Fraser as a client.
Her blood was also found spattered on walls and floors around the flat.
In a video-link appearance at the Old Bailey, Fraser admitted killing her and taking a mobile phone and £150.
The court heard that Fraser believed his "enemy" was a man disguised as a female sex worker and that after killing Ms Duque-Tunjano he "believed he had defeated his enemy".
Sentencing Fraser, Judge John Bevan said: "You represent an ongoing and very real danger to women, which is likely to continue.
"I am persuaded that the right course here in the interests of justice and of yourself is to make an order under Section 37 of the Mental Health Act."
Fraser pleaded not guilty to falsely imprisoning and sexually assaulting another woman - who was also an escort - 10 days before the killing, but did admit robbing her of £1,000 during a terrifying and sustained attack.
Mr Denison said: "She was convinced during it that he was going to kill her."
The prosecutor described how Fraser grabbed the woman and stuffed her underwear into her mouth and she tried to fend him off with a high-heeled shoe.
The court heard she only escaped after she "managed to grab his testicles and squeeze as hard as she could".
Fraser suffers from paranoid schizophrenia and is now receiving treatment in the high-security Broadmoor Hospital.
He has suffered from persecutory delusions since 2009 and believes the devil represents women, the Old Bailey heard.
His defence counsel told the court that the former bank worker was known to psychiatric services as far back as 2009, but had not received the attention he needed.
Three months before Ms Duque-Tunjano's killing, he had tried to get help in hospital, but was forced to leave because he was threatened with arrest for bed blocking.
