Description

33-year-old Aqueel Hussain is a dangerous child rapist.

Yesterday he was given a sentence totalling 16 years.

Last year he groomed a 12-year-old girl on Snapchat and told her he was 19.

Eventually they arranged to meet at a Asda in Colne on 28th November.

The victim went to the shopping centre with a friend, but that friend had to leave. Having never met the victim or her friend, Hussain agreed to book and pay for the victim’s friends’ taxi on an online booking platform.

CCTV footage captured Hussain accompanying the victim, who was dressed in her school uniform, into Asda where he bought her a phone charger.

After they left the store, Hussain invited her into his white BMW car. After driving to a secluded spot in the carpark, Hussain got into the back of his vehicle sand said he would give his victim £100 if she joined in. It was while the victim was in the back of the BMW that Hussain raped her.

The matter was reported to police after the victim began to get bullied at school as a direct result of the incident.

Our officers managed to identify Hussain from the mobile number he used to book the taxi.

We visited a property in Blackburn and although Hussain wasn’t there at the time, the same distinctive trousers he was wearing in the CCTV footage the day he committed the rape were found in a locked bedroom.

While our officers were on their way to a second property linked to Hussain in Blackburn, they spotted his white BMW.

After briefly following Hussain, the BMW was stopped and he was arrested on suspicion of rape. He was wearing the same jumper and jacket he had been wearing in the CCTV footage the day he committed the rape.

Following consultation with the Crown Prosecution Service, Hussain, formerly of Irene Place, Blackburn, but now of no fixed address, was charged with rape and meeting a girl under 16 years of age following grooming.

Hussain was found guilty following a trial at Preston Crown Court earlier this year. He returned to the same court yesterday where he was jailed for 15 years and given an extended licence period of 12 months after a Judge deemed him to be a dangerous offender. Hussain was also made subject of an indefinite Sexual Harm Prevention order and ordered to sign the Sex Offenders Register for life.

In an impact statement to the court, the victim’s mum said:

“Being a parent doesn’t come with instructions. I was prepared for tantrums, arguments, and a bit of sass when my daughter started high school, but no phone call from her Head of Year or Parenting Book could ever of prepared me for the police standing in my kitchen putting my daughter’s school uniform into evidence bags.
“Everything unfolded in slow motion. Wondering how did this happen? How did we get here?
“My daughter’s social life quickly deteriorated, and at school she became a target once more as students had found out. We decided it was best to pull her from public education temporarily.
“As the months went by and the Exploitation Team helped her, she regained some confidence to go out and see friends. We were all so proud of her for making what would be small steps in the average person’s day to day life but a massive step in my daughter’s life.
“It felt like we were getting our vibrant, chatty, wild, full of life daughter back. Until we got to June and my daughter spent five days in hospital recovering from an overdose.
“Since June, my daughter has made positive baby steps towards a brighter future, returning to education part time.
“The impact that has had on our family has been tremendous. But my daughter is the strongest, bravest person I know. Thanks to her courage, nobody else will hopefully have to suffer because of this man’s actions. I could not be any more proud of her.”

DC Kiren Shah, of our East Child Protection Team, said: 

“Hussain is a dangerous pervert with an depraved sexual interest in female children. I welcome the significant sentence he has received which reflects the seriousness of his offending.
“I want to praise the victim for the immense bravery she has shown throughout this process. The significant impact this offending has had and continues to have on her life – and that of her family – is profound. I hope the punishment handed down to Hussain will assist her in continuing to rebuild her life.
“I would also like to appeal to the public to be vigilant and if they see something that doesn’t seem right, to please report it to us. In this case for instance, there was a vulnerable child in school uniform walking around a busy supermarket with a much older man.
“Finally, I was to thank my colleagues, particularly those in the East Child Protection Team, for their tenacity in identifying Hussain and bringing him to justice. He made deliberate attempts to evade justice, including falsely claiming he was handing himself in, but it was thanks to the determination of Child Protection Team patrols and our Immediate Response colleagues, that he was located and arrested. They have played a crucial role in taking a dangerous man off the streets of East Lancashire.”

A Wakefield man has been jailed for a number of sex offences against a girl.

Christopher Ackroyd was found guilty of the offences at a trial in August.

He was convicted of one count of attempted rape, four counts of causing a child under 13 to engage in sexual activity, one count of sexual assault of a child under 13 and one count of causing a child to watch a sexual act.

Ackroyd was also found guilty of witness intimidation.

The offences were all reported to have taken place earlier this decade.

Appearing before Leeds Crown Court for sentencing today (16/10), Ackroyd, aged 32, of Wasdale Road, Wakefield, was jailed for 10 years (nine years for the sexual offences and a further one year to be served consecutively for witness intimidation).

He was also given a lifetime Sexual Harm Prevention Order and made to sign the Sex Offenders Register for life.

The conviction follows an investigation by detectives from Wakefield’s District Safeguarding Unit.

Speaking after the sentencing Detective Constable Khi Smith said:

“First and foremost, I would like to thank the victim for coming forward, for talking to us and trusting us.  

“Her courage and bravery throughout this investigation have been key to ensuring that Ackroyd was convicted of these horrendous offences.

“He is a dangerous sexual predator, and I hope that his prison sentence brings her some comfort as she begins to move forward with her life.

“The close partnership working that has taken place between police and other agencies during the course of this investigation has ensured the victim had confidence in telling us what took place.

“West Yorkshire Police has dedicated safeguarding detectives across the entire force who are experienced in investigating non-recent sexual offences. We would encourage victims of this kind of offending to come forward. What you tell us will be investigated and you will be believed.”

Description

A man has been jailed for multiple sex offences including rape.

Jayke Bullivant was sentenced after previously pleading guilty to multiple offences including rape, attempted rape, sexual abuse of a child and inciting a child in sexual activity.

The 19-year-old from Sutton Coldfield admitted the offences at Birmingham Crown Court on 14 October last year, and he was jailed last Wednesday (8 October).

The investigation started back in December 2023 when Bullivant was found to be with a child who was reported missing to us. He was then charged with several inciting a child to engage in sexual activity offences.

Officers continued to investigate and found that Bullivant had raped a child on two separate occasions, and as a result, he was further charged.

Bullivant, of Falcon Lodge Crescent, has been jailed for nine years with an extended licence for eight years, and he was given a sexual harm prevention order, and will be on the sex offenders register for the rest of his life.

DC Amelia Rose and DC Joshua Gemmell, from West Midland’s Police, said:

“This sentence is reflective of the abuse suffered by four child victims.

"They have all shown immense courage throughout this investigation.

"We encourage anyone who has suffered abuse to come forward. You will be supported, and you will be believed."

Description

A 19-year-old teenager was caught on CCTV performing a sex act involving a metal rocking horse and a tree branch at Burn Valley Park in Hartlepool last October.

Two camera operators witnessed Callum Green committing the act live and alerted police, who arrested him on Rydal Street.

Green, of Alston Street, admitted criminal damage to the playground but denied outraging public decency.

At Teesside Magistrates' Court on Wednesday (October 15), it was heard that the rocking horse "required professional cleaning" after the early-morning incident.

Defense lawyer Tyler Plunkett agreed with the facts but argued the outraging charge didn't apply, as it wasn't in front of at least two public members.

Prosecutor Anne Mitchell countered: "It is the Crown’s case that both [CCTV operators] were witnessing the events in live CCTV."

District Judge Helen Cousins, addressing Green—who wore a light blue suit and tie—called the incident "unedifying to say the least."

She ruled: "I take the view that time has moved on and watching on a live feed does amount to being present. I therefore reject the submissions and find the case proved."

Noting Green as a "very young man," she ordered a pre-sentence report, adding: "All options are open so far as sentencing is concerned. I want to know more about you, what motivated these offences and what I can do about it."

Green was granted conditional bail, barring him from Burn Valley Gardens or any recreational playground in Cleveland, with sentencing set for November 14.

Description

A drunken 61-year-old man, Marin Cristea, of Melbourne Street, west Hull, targeted two young children in a park, kissing them in "unpleasant and upsetting" encounters that left them shocked and anxious. He later kissed a woman in an "unsettling" street confrontation, Hull Crown Court heard.

Cristea admitted sexually assaulting a child under 13 twice on August 17 last year and assaulting a woman on February 22 this year. He had prior convictions, including a 2023 assault where he grabbed a child's wrist in Pearson Park after seeking a fist bump.

Prosecutor Jazmine Lee said Cristea approached a 12-year-old girl and 10-year-old boy playing in the park, speaking unintelligibly in non-English. He kissed the girl's hand and cheek, and the boy's hand and mouth. The boy's mother intervened, and Cristea left. The girl felt "freaked out," spotted him staring the next day, and police arrested the apparently drunk man after a chase. She later described lasting anxiety about going out alone, feeling shocked and scared.

On the day of the woman's assault, at 8am en route to Pilates, Cristea—drunk and unsteady—thrust his head into her car window, then kissed her hand and cheek despite her recoiling and trying to flee. He blocked her path, leaving her panicked and trapped until she escaped and called 999. She now feels on edge around men.

Mitigator Stephen Robinson noted the offences occurred while drunk, involved only kissing with no sensitive touching, and "went no further." Cristea apologized, blamed excessive drinking in downtime despite factory work, accepted custody, and hoped to return to Romania and his adult daughter, realizing "there is very little for him here."

Judge Alexander Menary said: "These offences have had an obvious impact on the victims. It was unsettling for them and interfered with their daily routines thereafter."

Cristea was jailed for one year, given a 10-year sexual harm prevention order, and must register as a sex offender for 10 years.

Curtis Arnold Convicted of Fraud and Sexual Offenses, Subject to 10-Year SHPO

• 12 counts of fraud
• 1 count of voyeurism
• 1 count of causing sexual activity without consent

Description

A former teacher at a school in Southampton has been jailed after admitting non-recent sexual offences against three teenage girls.

Leo Norman, of Peartree Avenue, Southampton, was jailed for 14 months at a sentence hearing today (Friday 17 October) at Portsmouth Crown Court.

The 46-year-old was a teacher at St Anne’s Catholic School and Sixth Form College at the time of the offences, which took place between 2014 and 2019.

Norman had pleaded guilty to three counts of sexual activity with a girl 13 to 17 - adult abuse of position of trust, at a previous hearing at the same court on Monday 11 August.

Two impact statements were read out in court. They were from two of the women who were abused by Norman when they were teenage girls at the school, and they detailed the impact of Norman’s offending.

The court heard that some of the offending involved sexual touching which had taken place on school premises, including in Norman’s office. He had also made inappropriate comments to then pupils, which left them feeling uncomfortable.

An investigation was carried out by Hampshire & Isle of Wight Constabulary’s specialist Operation Marmion team, who investigate allegations of non-recent sexual abuse perpetrated within institutions or by people of prominence.

At the sentence hearing, Norman was put on the sexual offenders register and made subject of a Sexual Harm Prevention Order for ten years.

Detective Constable Laura Hardie said:

“This is a shocking case where a teacher has abused his position of trust to sexually abuse three teenage girls. These offences took place on separate occasions over a period of a number of years.

“I want to commend the women in this case for the bravery they have shown in talking to police and recounting their experience. In doing so, they have helped bring Norman to justice.

“We know how difficult reporting incidents of this nature can be, and I hope this case shows that no matter when the offence took place, you will be listened to and the matter will be investigated thoroughly.

“As a survivor of sexual abuse, you are also entitled to support whether you report the crime or not. You can access different types of support depending on how you’re feeling and what you decide to do next.”

A man from Neath Port Talbot has been jailed after pleading guilty to possessing indecent images of children.

26-year-old Darren Rogers, from Alltwen, uploaded one Category A indecent video of a child to his Snapchat account in January 2024. Officers arrested Rogers at his home address, before further child sexual abuse material was found on devices belonging to him.

Rogers pleaded guilty to four counts of possessing an indecent photograph of a child, one count of possessing a prohibited image of a child, and one count of possessing an extreme pornographic image showing sexual activity involving an animal.

He also pleaded guilty to seven counts of engaging in sexual communication with a child and one count each of distributing an indecent photograph of a child and causing a child to look at an image of sexual activity.

He has been sentenced to two years and two months in prison. He has also been made subject of a Sexual Harm Prevention Order (SHPO) for a period of ten years.

Detective Constable Adam Staniforth said:

“Darren Rogers was in possession of incredibly depraved material, and he knew this to be illegal.

“Rogers was using Snapchat to view and share this material, and it is fortunate that this came to light before his offending escalated any further.

“He was exploiting vulnerable children for his own sexual gratification, and he is now embarking on a deserved spell in prison as a result.

“As a force, South Wales Police will leave no stone unturned in the protection and safeguarding of children.”

Description

A 53-year-old Plymouth man, Nicholas Stanyon-Tall, of Kiln Close, was sentenced to 18 years in jail after a jury convicted him at Plymouth Crown Court of four counts of rape against two girls under 16, plus two counts of sexual assault.

The offences occurred in Plymouth over a four-year period in the 2000s. Stanyon-Tall had denied the charges; the victims cannot be identified for legal reasons.

Judge Robert Linford imposed an 18-year sentence with a one-year extended licence for each rape, and five years for each sexual assault, all concurrent. He also received a 30-year Sexual Harm Prevention Order, lifelong placement on the Sex Offenders' Register, a 30-year restraining order barring contact with the victims, and lifelong barring from the Disclosure and Barring Service.

Lead investigator Det Con Fiona Archer said:

"We welcome the Jury's verdict and the Judge's sentence in this case. The victims now have some justice for the suffering they received as children, and we hope they can begin to move forward with their lives.

"They have conducted themselves in an exemplary manner and have been very patient whilst this case has been brought to court. Nicholas Stanyon-Tall subjected the victims to abhorrent sexual abuse on numerous occasions.

"He will now serve a long prison sentence and be subject of continued monitoring once released. We thank all those involved for their part in bringing Nicholas Stanyon-Tall to justice."

Description

Mohammed Naveed, 42, a Bradford barber, was jailed for nine years after locking a boy in his shop's back room, pinning him down, and raping him when the boy refused to "work for" free cannabis.

Bradford Crown Court heard the unidentified boy had previously received cannabis from Naveed. He was also separately abused by Muhammed Afsan, 43, of Lynfield Drive, Bradford, who committed sex offences against him in his Audi car. Afsan received eight years, plus time for breaching a 2022 sexual risk order by having the boy and a 15-year-old girl in his car twice.

The girl was sexually assaulted by Naveed in the back room, where he demanded she remove her clothes and tried pulling off her top—stopped when the boy intervened.

Prosecutor Louise Reevell noted Naveed's jury convictions for rape, sexual communication with a child, paying for sexual services, sexual assault, and engaging in sexual activity in a child's presence. The boy was "rewarded" with vapes, money, and £20 for oral sex for sharing photos.

Afsan was convicted of penetrative sexual activity with a child, breaching the order, and sexual activity in a child's presence.

The boy's victim impact statement described sleepless nights and nightmares. Recorder Patrick Palmer said: “You must both understand your offending is serious offending which obviously warrants immediate sentences of imprisonment."

Both face lifelong sexual harm prevention orders and sex offender registration.

Description

A woman attempted suicide twice, visiting a bridge with intent to end her life, after being sexually assaulted by David Walsh, 41, of Cardiff. She described her life in "turmoil" and feeling "sick to her stomach" when Walsh denied the offenses.

Walsh assaulted the victim by performing oral sex on her after she passed out from alcohol and penetrating her with his fingers on two occasions.

At Cardiff Crown Court on Friday, the victim reported the assault, leading to Walsh's arrest. He denied the claims, alleging she made up or "exaggerated" them. A jury convicted him of two counts of assault by penetration and one count of sexual assault.

In her victim personal statement, read by prosecutor Thomas Stanway, she said: "The impact on my family and I has been huge." A decade-long degree pursuit derailed, she can no longer chase her dream career, facing massive financial strain: "I am unable to hold a job down... I have been signed off from work due to anxiety. The incident has taken my independence away. Having my dream career taken away from me and not being able to work is heartbreaking."

She undergoes therapy but battles insomnia, flashbacks, severe depression, and shaking like Parkinson's: "I suffer with shaking as if I have Parkinson's. It happens when I'm watching TV at home and anxiety washes all over me... Some days I feel like I need to be cared for like a child." She added: "I am regularly severely depressed, on two occasions I ended up on (a roundabout) and my husband had to call me off to stop me from jumping... Standing on that bridge would never have happened if the defendant hadn't assaulted me that night... It sickens me down to my stomach (the defendant) thought what he had done was acceptable and for him to deny what he did while my life has been in turmoil really hurts."

Walsh has prior convictions for assault occasioning actual bodily harm, battery, and dangerous driving. In mitigation, Christopher Evans claimed no "severe psychological harm," noting Walsh's two children and support for his sister's family bills.

Judge Greg Bull deemed the offenses "pretty serious" with aggravating factors, sentencing Walsh to six years and six months in prison, indefinite sex offender registration, and a 20-year restraining order.

Description

Former Premier League referee David Coote has pleaded guilty to making an indecent image of a child.

The 43-year-old appeared at Nottingham Crown Court over an allegation relating to a category A video, the most serious kind, recovered by police in February.

Coote, from Woodhill Road, Collingham, Nottinghamshire, was granted conditional bail ahead of an appearance on 11 December.

Judge Nirmal Shant KC ordered a pre-sentence report and said: "You have pleaded guilty to a serious matter. Whether this means custody or not will be decided when all the information is before the court."

The court heard Coote extracted the video from a hard drive to a laptop on 2 January 2020.

He previously pleaded not guilty to the charge at a hearing on 10 September at Nottingham Magistrates' Court.

At the six-minute hearing on Tuesday, Coote, who wore a navy suit and black tie, spoke only to confirm his name and enter his guilty plea.

The charge of making an indecent image of a child refers to activities such as downloading, sharing or saving photos or videos containing abuse.

Judge Shant KC said: "You must not go away with the impression that this will not lead to a custodial sentence."

Coote was sacked last year when comments made in a video about former Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp in 2020 came to light.

In August this year, he was given an eight-week suspension by the Football Association over the Klopp footage.

In addition, the ex-official is also banned by European football's governing body Uefa until 30 June 2026 after photographs emerged of him snorting a white powder through a bank note while in Germany for Euro 2024.

In January, Coote came out as gay in an interview with The Sun and said a lifelong struggle to hide his sexuality had contributed to the rant about Klopp.

Description

A child rapist has been jailed for 21 years for subjecting a young girl to years of sexual abuse in Warrington.

Graham Jones, previously known as Graham Peacock, of Clonners Field, Stapeley, appeared at Liverpool Crown Court on Friday 10 October where he was handed the custodial sentence. He will also need to serve an extra five years on extended licence.

The 64-year-old had previously denied the charges, which consisted of four counts of rape, 14 counts of indecent assault, and four counts of gross indecency with a child, but was subsequently found guilty following a trial.

The court heard how Jones had abused the victim over many years in the Warrington area. The abuse began when she was aged nine and continued for several years.

The offences were reported in May 2022, and the victim bravely spoke about what had happened to her. Following enquiries, Jones was arrested and ultimately charged with multiple offences in June 2024.

On top of his 21-year sentence, Jones was ordered to sign the Sex Offender Register for life and is also subject to an indefinite Sexual Harm Prevention Order, plus restraining orders to protect the victim in this case.

Detective Constable Caroline Wharmby said:

“Firstly, I would like to commend the bravery of the victim in this case for speaking about what happened to her.

“No-one should have to go through what she has been through, and I hope the conclusion of this court process will help to bring her some sense of closure. Although nothing will make her forget what this despicable man did, her evidence and courage has meant he is now behind bars for a significant length of time, where he can’t do this to anyone else.

“Jones is clearly a sexual predator, taking advantage of an innocent young girl for his own twisted gratification.

“The fact that he committed such dreadful crimes over a number of years shows that he had absolutely no regard for how his crimes would impact the victim.

“Thankfully, the jury saw through his lies, and he now has many years in custody to contemplate his actions.”

Description

A man has been sentenced to nine years in prison for raping two women he met online.

Tony Heath, 28, of Avonmouth, was sentenced to two charges of rape and one charge of sexual assault at Bristol Crown Court on Wednesday 8 October.

Heath, who was convicted by a jury at the same court on 26 September, raped both of his victims at his home after meeting them on Tinder and Snapchat, respectively.

Heath met his first victim on Tinder, and, after a few days he invited her back to his home where he sexually assaulted her before committing rape, but she was eventually able to escape after kicking him off.

He contacted his second victim on Snapchat and after a few hours, he asked her to go to his home to watch a film. She agreed, and he later raped her.

The women, who were aged in their late teens and early 20s at the time of the offending, were supported throughout the investigation and trial, and were referred to support services for victims of sexual offences.

One of the women said in a statement which was read in court:

“To this day I have thought about it non-stop, although everyone said, ‘just don’t think about it’, but it is all I do. I go over what happened and felt like I was to blame, and I deserved it.

“But I was put in that situation by him, I was powerless, and I froze. He took every bit of dignity from me.”

The second woman who had her statement read out on her behalf in court, said:

“A couple of days after this happened, I started having nightmares. I had nightmares where I would be back there, in the room, and I couldn’t get him off. Now, more than six months later, I am still having these nightmares multiple times a week.

“I now struggle with all physical contact with men, including those closest to me, and I can’t let my dad or cousin hug me anymore. While I am relieved that I went through the investigation and trial, it doesn’t change what he did to me, the impact it is still having on me, which will continue for the rest of my life.”

Description

A dangerous paedophile and convicted rapist who extensively groomed and sent explicit images to a 12-year-old decoy has been jailed for six years, with a three-year extended licence period.

James Green, 35, of Vaughan Street, King Cross, Halifax, sent "highly sexualised" messages, graphic photos and videos of his penis, and masturbation footage to what he believed was a school-age childbut was actually a police officer. Over 12 days in May, he suggested meeting to "kiss and go on dates and then do naughty things to each other," discussed spending weekends together, and having sex.

When police raided his home, they found a damaged Motorola phone buried in his cellarthe device used for messaging. Possessing it, plus a PlayStation 5, breached his 10-year Sexual Harm Prevention Order (SHPO) banning internet-capable devices.

The phone contained Category A, B, and C illicit images and videos of children (A being most serious), plus extreme adult-animal pornography. Green was said to have "a clear interest in children" and showed little remorse.

His prior convictions, dating to 2005, include rape and sexual assault of a child under 13 in 2011 (five years in a young offender institution), possession of indecent images, and multiple SHPO breaches.

In mitigation, Green pleaded guilty, accepted responsibility, and was "much more willing" to accept help to change.

Jailing him at Bradford Crown Court, Deputy Circuit Judge Timothy Clayson rejected Green's claim of feeling "lonely and isolated" after his last licence ended. The judge described "extensive grooming" and a "blatant breach" of the SHPO, noting Green damaged and hid the phone to evade detection.

Judge Clayson said:

"You are dangerous. You represent a significant risk of causing serious harm to members of the public by the commission of further specified offences.

"Your previous convictions are substantial. All relate to your sexual interest in children and your unwillingness or inability to behave lawfully and in compliance with court orders.

You groomed the person you were in communication with, with a view to meeting in which intercourse was contemplated by you. This is very important in the assessment of dangerousness because it shows you wanted to commit a very serious sexual offence upon a young child.

Protection of young girls must be the primary object of this sentencing exercise.

Green received an indefinite SHPO, must register as a sex offender for life, and is ineligible for parole until serving two-thirds of his sentence.
