More Muslim Violence Against British Women (V)

• Two men in court over a rape and sexual assault perpetrated against two 15 year old girls:

TWO men from Salford have appeared in court in connection with the rape and sexual assault of two teenagers.

At Manchester Magistrates Court it was alleged that a 15 year old girl was taken to a flat in Hulme by two men, where she was raped and her friend, also 15, was sexually attacked.

Mohamed Nasr, 23, of Liverpool Road, Eccles, was charged with rape and sexual assault. Mubaraj Abdulwali, 19, of Mellor Street, Eccles, was charged with sexual assault.

Both men were refused bail and committed to Crown Court for plea and case management on September 3.

• Leeds railway station sex pest detained under the Mental Health Act:

A SEX pest who assaulted a student in Leeds railway station has been locked up under the Mental Health Act.

Mohammed Ali, 21, targeted the 18-year-old who had just got off a train late on a Sunday night.

Prosecutor, Kenneth Green said as the girl rode the escalator she felt a hand on her bottom.

Mr Green said she remonstrated with Ali but he smirked and said "you have really nice hair" before touching her left breast.

Mr Green said the frightened girl tried to shake Ali off, telling him "Don't touch me."

The girl reported the assault to a station security officer at the ticket barrier.

Meanwhile, another staff member at the station spotted Ali approaching another woman and he was arrested by police at the scene.

Ali admitted the October 2007 sexual assault.

Three months earlier, Ali had sexually assaulted a 15-year-old girl in a Huddersfield park by grabbing her breast.

• Man in court for ice cream van rape:

A MAN has appeared in court charged with the rape of a Bolton woman in 2006.

Javed Iqbal, aged 42, of Bury New Road, Bolton, is charged with rape and possessing false identity documents.

He appeared at Bolton Crown Court yesterday wearing a black T-shirt and black tracksuit pants. He spoke through an interpreter to confirm his name.

The charge relates to the alleged rape of a 22-year-old woman, who was said to have been attacked in the back of an ice cream van on Alders Lane, Tonge Moor, on May 23, 2006.

• Dentist groped patients he was treating:

A DENTIST has been found guilty of groping two female patients while treating them at Addenbrooke’s Hospital. Dr Chetan Somaiya, 32, pictured, had pleaded not guilty to two counts of sexual assault on separate patients in July last year, but he could now face a prison sentence for his "very serious breach of trust".

Earlier in the case Angela Rafferty, prosecuting, said Somaiya, a dental and facial specialist, had squeezed the breasts of his victims and had given in to "momentary temptation".

One of his victims, an 18-year-old Italian language student said the married doctor had felt under her armpits, placed a stethoscope on her breast and massaged her abdomen, while another woman said he had reached into her bra and twisted her nipple.

But the doctor said he decided to take the vital signs of the student after he feared she may have a head injury from a bike accident earlier in the day, in which she heavily banged her jaw on the pavement. Somaiya claimed he had simply been checking for swollen lymph nodes when he "inappropriately" put his hands underneath her armpits. He denied at all stages of the trial that he had sexually touched either of the women.

• A Muslim and a Sikh man abducted a 'random' female victim in Doncaster and subjected her to a rape ordeal:

TWO men who kidnapped and raped a woman while she was on a night out in Doncaster town centre have been jailed for 11 years each.

Zohiab Mahmood, aged 21, of Malvern Avenue, Intake, and Sunny Singh, 22, of Carr House Road, Hyde Park, were both sentenced after a Sheffield Crown Court jury found them guilty of rape and kidnap.

The pair bundled their 23-year-old victim into the back of their car before subjecting her to a two hour ordeal.

A member of the public tried to intervene when the woman was kidnapped but he was punched in the face.

Speaking after the hearing Det Con Julie Ward said: "They dragged her into the car, there was some amount of violence used. Once they had got her in the car they drove her to two separate locations in and around Doncaster.

"It was a really nasty ordeal for her, it was horrific really. This is probably one of the worst we have seen."

The Doncaster woman, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was waiting for a friend to buy some food on November 29, when she was kidnapped. As she waited outside a bridal shop at the junction of East Laith Gate and Thorne Road shortly after midnight, the men grabbed her and dragged her into a Volkswagen Golf.

She was taken to The Grove near Doncaster Royal Infirmary and a layby off West Moor Link Road, in Armthorpe, where she was raped.

Police officers then found Mahmood and Singh with their victim in the car in Park Road, off East Laith Gate, DC Ward said.

Mahmood and Singh did not know her and had chosen to kidnap her at random, she added.

• A slightly different and very disturbing case. An accountant working for the London headquarters of the charity 'Save the Children' has been found guilty of raping a young boy:

A Save the Children worker who belonged to an international paedophile ring has been told to expect a prison term after admitting sexually abusing a child.

Sohail Ayaz, 35, pleaded guilty at Southwark Crown Court to raping a boy.

Ayaz, a Pakistani national who lived in Whiting Avenue, Barking, also admitted distributing images of the child and possessing 397 other indecent pictures.

The charity said no criminal record check had been done because Ayaz, an accountant, had no access to children.

Judge Peter Telstar ordered him to be held in custody until sentencing and told him jail was inevitable for "such a serious case".

Ayaz was caught after Rome-based police started an investigation into an Italian child abuser.

They found the Italian suspect had been supplied with the details of 15 Romanian children by Ayaz.

Ayaz was allegedly acting as middleman for a Swedish paedophile who said he could provide Romanian children for sexual abuse.

Italian police informed their British counterparts who began their own investigation.

Det Sgt Nick Duffield, of the Metropolitan Police's paedophile unit, said: "It was important that he, being a Pakistani national, didn't get any idea we had become aware of him and disappear off to Pakistan.

"For that reason it was vital we arrested him somewhere we definitely knew he was going to be - his place of work."

He added: "Save the Children helped us snare him."

Ishbel Matheson, spokeswoman for the charity, said: "For the next two weeks we liaised with the police and closely monitored Ayaz.

"It was a case that has shocked and horrified us as a children's organisation."

She said it had not been possible to carry out a Criminal Records Bureau check on Ayaz because it was not the policy of the the bureau to check up on people with no direct access to children.

Police arrested the accountant on 4 February at his desk in the charity's headquarters in Farringdon, central London.

A search of Ayaz's rented flat found hundreds of indecent images and videos he had collected through "file-sharing activities".

Some fell into the most serious Level Five category.
