ASYLUM SEEKER WHO ARRIVED IN BRITAIN ILLEGALLY JAILED FOR RA**NG WOMAN IN PARK

An asylum seeker who arrived in the UK illegally has been jailed for ra**ng an 18-year-old woman in a park days after meeting her via a social media app.

Stafford Crown Court was told the 27-year-old, Mehmet Ogur, who was living at the Holiday Inn Express in Tamworth, forced himself on the teenager last summer and later sent her messages amounting to a “full and complete” admission.

Ogur was found guilty of r**e and attempted r**e at a trial last summer, after denying any wrongdoing and claiming Google Translate had altered the meaning of the messages.

Passing sentence, Judge John Edwards told Ogur, who was assisted in the dock by a Turkish interpreter, that the r**e had caused “immense harm” to the victim.

The judge told Ogur, who is understood to have arrived in Britain on a small boat weeks before the attack: "Your continued stay in the United Kingdom will be for others to determine, not for me."

In a victim impact statement which she read to the court prior to sentencing, she said: "I’m a survivor of r**e by Mehmet Ogur.

"No words can explain what he put me through. He completely changed me as a person.

"The truth is I don’t think I’ll ever get through it. He completely destroyed me."

Saying she wanted to fight for herself and "every single other girl that’s too scared to speak up" and get justice, the victim, who cannot be named, added: "It’s been nearly a year since you r**ed me but it still feels like yesterday.

"Why me, why did you choose me to completely destroy when all I did was show kindness and empathy towards you?"

Joseph McKenna, defending, told the court in mitigation that the defendant was suffering from anxiety and depression, having experienced "difficult circumstances" as a Kurd in Turkey.

The trial was told Ogur attacked the woman after consensual cuddling and kissing, during a meeting in a secluded area of a park near Tamworth town centre.

A jury of seven women and five men convicted Ogur after hearing how the victim screamed for him to stop as she tried to struggle free.

Ogur gave a false account to his trial, claiming he had only engaged in consensual activity and that messages he sent to the woman a day after the offence were not admissions of guilt.

One of the messages, the court heard, read "I am really sorry, I didn’t actually want to do this but I couldn’t stop myself" while another stated "I am sorry for trying to force you to have s*x".

The prosecutor at Ogur’s trial described the messages as a "full and complete admission" to the offences.

Commenting after the case, Sachan Gautam, a senior crown prosecutor in the Crown Prosecution Service West Midlands specialist r**e and serious s*xual offences unit, said: "This was a deeply distressing case in which Mehmet Ogur deliberately ignored the victim’s clear refusal of consent.

"His behaviour escalated from unwanted advances to a violent and traumatic r**e.

"The CPS worked closely with Staffordshire Police to build a strong case, including forensic evidence about injuries she received, CCTV and the victim’s courageous testimony, which ultimately led to his conviction."

Ogur has been jailed for seven years.

A Home Office spokesperson said: "We will not allow foreign criminals and illegal migrants to exploit our laws. We are reforming human rights laws and replacing the broken appeals system so we can scale up deportations.

“All Foreign National Offenders who receive a prison sentence in the UK are referred for deportation at the earliest opportunity.

*** They took turns to r**e a 13-year-old girl!!! ***

Six men of Pakistani heritage who groomed and took it in turns to s*xually abuse a white 13-year-old schoolgirl in West Yorkshire in what can only be described as repeated racist s*xual attacks have been jailed

Meet Mohammed Shebhan, Amzar Ali, Adal Manaf, Imran Hussain, Naveed Anjum and Mohammed Adnan carried out the abuse between May 2006 and May 2009 when the victim was aged from 13 to 15.

In many of the incidents, the victim was plied with alcohol or drugs by her attackers, who were aged between 22 and 37 at the time, Bradford Crown Court heard.

The victim os said to be suffering from lifelong psychological scars

All six men were found guilty in March following a six-week trial, and were jailed on Friday for terms ranging from four-and-a-half years to 14 years.

In a victim impact statement read to the court, the victim wrote: "I was manipulated, controlled, plied with drugs and alcohol by adult men to make me feel 'special' and loved.

"But it was all an illusion, a tool used to take advantage of me so they could abuse me."

She added that her difficult family situation left her "very vulnerable" to these "predatory" men.

"Even now, I struggle to let people in. Even now, I am on edge, afraid that someone might take advantage of me again.

"The shame, the guilt, the self-blame I carried for years made me feel so isolated and alone.

"This was not just a single moment in my life, it was a series of events, a violation that leaves lifelong scars.

"I am trying to heal, but the harm done to me was deep and its effects are everlasting."

- Shebhan, 42, of Wyvern Place, Halifax, was convicted of two counts of r**e and jailed for 14 years.

- Ali, 54, of Longroad Place, Huddersfield, was convicted of two counts of s*xual activity with a child and jailed for 10 years.

- Manaf, 48, of Cavendish Terrace, Halifax, was convicted of r**e and jailed for eight years.

- Hussain, 50, of Parkinson Lane, Halifax, was convicted of attempted r**e and jailed for seven years.

- Anjum, 50, of Kings Cross Road, Halifax, was convicted of one count of s*xual activity with a child and jailed for five-and-a-half years.

- Adnan, 44, of Stirling Street, Halifax, was convicted of one count of s*xual assault and jailed for four-and-a-half years.

- A seventh defendant, Khalid Kamran, 35, was found not guilty of one count of r**e.

Jurors were unable to reach a verdict on a charge of r**e against Mohammed Mahmood, 40.

Bethany Raine, specialist prosecutor from the Crown Prosecution Service's Organised Child S*xual Abuse Unit, said the victim had shown "immense courage".

"She was a child entitled to affection. These men offered her false affection so they could s*xually abuse her. They have now been held accountable for their appalling crimes," she added.

THEY WILL NEVER BE FORGIVEN FOR WHAT THEY DID !!!!

ITS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE 😡

A man has been jailed for nine years and placed on the S*x Offenders Register for life after secretly filming and s*xually abusing a teenage girl.

David Rudkin, 57-years-old, of Roxby Road in Winterton pleaded guilty to two counts of assault by pe*******on, s*xual assault, voyeurism and making indecent photographs of children at an earlier court date. He has now been sentenced to nine years behind bars and placed on the S*x Offenders Register for life following an appearance at Hull Crown Court last week (Friday, 22 May 2026).

An investigation into Rudkin was first launched when we received non-recent reports of a teenage girl that had been subjected to s*xual abuse across a period of five years. As well as engaging in s*xual activity with her whilst she slept, she also reported that she believed Rudkin had hid his phone on multiple occasions in order to film private videos of her without her knowing.

A police officer has been found guilty of misconduct in public office after pursuing an inappropriate relationship with a domestic abuse victim.

Kashif Saghir, who was working as response officer in Derby at the time of the incident, met the woman in the course of his duties in September 2024.

He gave the woman, who had a young daughter, his personal mobile phone number and the pair began speaking.

The following week Saghir attended the woman’s house with a cake for her daughter’s birthday and, when the woman said that her daughter needed to go to bed, Saghir followed her upstairs into her child’s bedroom where he cuddled the girl and kissed her on her head while reading her a bedtime story.

Two days later Saghir turned up at her house again and stayed late into the evening.

The woman, increasingly concerned about Saghir’s behaviour, spoke with her family who told her that she needed to contact the police and report him.

She did, and on October 13, 2024, he was arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office.

Following an investigation by Derbyshire Constabulary’s Professional Standards Department Saghir was charged in late 2025 and appeared at court for trial after denying the charge.

Following a trial at Leicester Crown Court which started on 12 May the jury found him guilty on Friday 22 May.

At the same court on the same day, the 23-year-old of Nottingham, was handed a nine-month jail term, suspended for 12 months and a £2,000 fine.

Temporary Deputy Chief Constable, Michelle Shooter, said: “Police officers and staff are expected, at all times, to protect our communities – in particular vulnerable victims of crime.

“Kashif Saghir broke that trust and pursued a relationship that he knew to be not only improper, but illegal.

“It is essential that our communities know our officers and staff will always work with the upmost integrity and, as a force, we will not stand for those who behave in this manner.

“Saghir was immediately suspended from duty following the initial report and, following him being found guilty and sentenced, will now be subject to an internal accelerated misconduct hearing.

“The vast majority of officers and staff work round the clock to keep the people of Derbyshire safe and the behaviour of individuals like Saghir undermine those who, on a daily basis, put themselves in harms way to protect others.

“We will continue to relentlessly pursue those who seek to undermine their colleagues and ensure that our communities are protected.”

Two women have been praised for their bravery in giving evidence that has led to their mother and stepfather being jailed for s*x offences yesterday (Wednesday 27 May).

The pair, who cannot be named to protect the identity of the victims, were each convicted of several offences in March following a trial at Leicester Crown Court.

During proceedings, a jury heard their crimes were brought to the attention of the police when one of the victims told someone else known to her what happened.

As part of the investigation, officers obtained an export of a WhatsApp chat between one of the victims and their mother which was key in proving that s*x offences involving their parents had taken place. The pair also sent voice messages to one of the victims which were of a threatening, intimidating and manipulative nature.

It was also established the pair had tried to discourage one of the victims from making a report to police so that their offending would not be subject to a criminal investigation.
