Hunt for rapists convicted of teenager’s abuse in Rotherham

Mudasar Hussain was convicted of 12 counts rape, his brother was convicted of one count of rape, and Khan was convicted of two counts of rape and one count of trafficking for sexual exploitation.

Police are still looking for the two missing men who were convicted in their absence.

Marshall said: “Officers have been working with partners, pursuing numerous lines of inquiry in the UK and overseas, to locate Mudasar Hussain and Kamir Khan.

“I am now appealing for anyone with information that could help our inquiries, no matter how insignificant that information may appear, to report it.

“I would like to recognise the continued bravery of the victim, who has already endured so much and who continues to be supported by specially trained officers.

“Our focus remains on securing justice for the victim and ensuring Khan and Hussain are held fully accountable for their actions.”

Melissa Garner, from the Crown Prosecution Service, said: “Mudasar Hussain and Kamir Khan separately groomed a young and vulnerable girl with alcohol, drugs and gifts.

“They raped her multiple times between 2008 and 2010 at various locations around Rotherham.

“Ghazanfar Hussain was quick to take advantage of the vulnerable victim when the opportunity presented itself.

“Their abuse has caused the victim serious and lifelong harm.”

Ghazanfar Hussain was remanded in custody ahead of his sentencing at Sheffield Crown Court on Friday.

Mudasar Hussain and Khan are also due to be sentenced on Friday in their absence.
