Around 15 women witnessed against these sick perverts and narrated to the juries about the incidents that happened to them in the years 2004 to 2011, when their ages were in-between 11 to 17.

All these accused received prison terms for 221 years in total.

Convicts Mohammed Kammer, Zahid Hassan, Mohammed Azeem and Mohammed Akram were found guilty too. Dhaliwal, who himself is a parent was found guilty 54 crimes in total which includes 22 rapes which involved 11 girls.

Judge Geoffrey Marson QC accused them for treating the girls as commodities for sexual pleasure and rebuked them for spoiling the lives of these innocent young girls. He also stated that they have not only ruined the lives of these girls, but it has also affected the families of these young girls.

In May, during the end of the second trial, Tommy Robinson, the founder of English Defense League was arrested for live streaming the case on Facebook for contempt of court. This case is yet to receive its verdict the next week.

Judge Marson also added that they gained the trust of these girls and then gradually they were trafficked. One of their girl claimed that her parents’ house and cars were thrashed and then she was brutally raped by these monsters. The judge said that one of the girls attempted to take her life and the other was thrown out of a running car in front of her house. She however survived despite the bruises all over the body and the influence of drugs and alcohol in her system.
