Shropshire paedophile jailed for seven years

Jailed paedophile Mohammed Ali Sultan had sex with a 13-year-old girl in his car after taking her to a lay-by and slapping her, a court was told.


The 26-year-old married man had first asked the girl to perform a sex act when she was just 12 years old, Wolverhampton Crown Court was told.

Sultan, of Victoria Avenue in Wellington, was yesterday jailed for seven years after the court was told of a string of sex-related offences with children and youngsters.
He was told he would have to serve an extended period on licence and banned from working with children for life.
Sultan admitted having illegal sex with two teenage girls - including the 13-year-old.
He was also sentenced for taking a third teenager from Telford to have sex with workers at a fish and chip shop.

Police shut down Rochdale takeaway in ‘child grooming’ probe

A Rochdale takeaway has been shut down as part of a new probe into the alleged sexual exploitation of children.

Tariq’s Pizza Plus, in Milnrow, was slapped with a three-month closure order by a magistrates court after an application from police and licensing officers.

A man who previously worked at the takeaway has also been banned from associating with a number of named people said to be ‘at risk of sexual exploitation’.

The probe was launched after Rochdale council received a number of alerts.

The allegations were passed to police and yesterday Bury and Rochdale magistrates granted the closure order.

Supt Chris Hankinson, based at Rochdale, said: "In recent weeks, we have been informed about a pattern of anti-social behaviour relating to an individual who worked at these premises. An investigation is ongoing, but we felt it was important to take proactive measures to safeguard any children who may come into contact with this individual.

"As a result, we issued him with a number of abduction notices which prohibit a person from associating with named individuals when they are at risk of sexual exploitation.This individual no longer works at, or associates with, the premises.

"Working in partnership with Rochdale council, we have now secured a temporary closure of the premises to ensure that any risk to vulnerable youngsters is kept to a minimum while the criminal investigation continues."

Jeanette Staley, Rochdale council’s community safety manager, said: "An application was made at Bury and Rochdale magistrates’ court to allow us to close Tariq’s Pizza Plus, in Dale Street, Milnrow.

"We were acting on community intelligence and police concerns. The council have reasonable grounds to believe that in recent months crime and disorder related to the premises has occurred.

"The court granted the application and the premises will now close with immediate effect for three months."

Council chiefs to be quizzed by MPs over child sex gangs

The current and former chief executive of a Yorkshire council are expected to be called before the Home Affairs Select Committee following claims of widespread child exploitation with gangs of Asian men grooming under-age white girls for sex.

An investigation last month claimed a confidential 2010 report by the Police Intelligence Bureau detailed “a significant problem with networks of Asian males exploiting young white females, particularly in Rotherham and Sheffield”, with officers reluctant to tackle the issue due to fear of cultural sensitivities.
Earlier this month, South Yorkshire Police chief constable David Crompton and detective chief inspector Philip Eldridge were repeatedly censured by the Home Affairs Select Committee about child sex abuse in Rotherham.

In a fiery session held immediately after the questioning of the forces’s response to the Hillsborough disaster, MPs heard evidence of a 22-year-old man going unpunished after being found in a car with a 12-year-old girl, a bottle of vodka and indecent images of her on his mobile phone.

Committee members also heard evidence of three unconvicted members of one family in Rotherham being linked to the abuse of 61 girls.

Now chairman Keith Vaz has revealed on Twitter that former Rotherham Council chief executive Mike Cuff, and current chief executive Martin Kimber, will shortly be called to give evidence before the committee.
A Rotherham Council spokesman said yesterday: “We are aware of Mr Vaz’s comments on Twitter but as yet we have not received a request to attend a select committee hearing.

“We will, of course be happy to assist Mr Vaz and his committee with their enquiries into this very important issue so we can outline the work which is being done in Rotherham to help tackle sexual exploitation.”
Senior South Yorkshire officers have said they are “frustrated” by reports police and council officers turned a “blind-eye” to the problem and said the ethnic origin of suspects has not been a factor at all in deciding to press charges.
