NAHMAN MOHAMMED CONVICTED IN HUDDERSFIELD GROOMING CASE INVOLVING SEXUAL ABUSE AND DRUG TRAFFICKING
| Red Rose Database
Huddersfield Grooming Gang Member
A group of five men, all previously convicted for their involvement in a notorious grooming gang operating in Huddersfield, have been found guilty of committing additional serious offences. The men, Abdul Rehman, Mohammed Kammer, Nahman Mohammed, Wiqas Mahmud, and Mohammed Imran Ibrar, faced trial at Leeds Crown Court, where their crimes spanning several years were thoroughly examined and ultimately led to convictions.
These individuals were implicated in the abuse of a young girl between the years 2005 and 2010, with the abuse beginning when the victim was only 14 years old. The case uncovered a disturbing pattern of exploitation and criminal activity that persisted over nearly a decade, involving multiple offences including rape and the supply of illegal drugs. The gravity of their actions was underscored by the fact that some of these men had already served time in prison for similar offences, making their recent convictions a second phase of justice.
Following the conclusion of the trial on 9 February, the men were sentenced at Bradford Crown Court. Abdul Rehman, aged 36 and hailing from Sheffield, received a sentence of three years and eleven months after being convicted of two offences related to facilitating child sex offences and drug trafficking. Mohammed Kammer, 38, from Huddersfield, was sentenced to seven years and six months for three counts of rape and one offence of trafficking for sexual exploitation. Nahman Mohammed, aged 37 and also from Huddersfield, was handed a seven-year sentence after being convicted of two rape offences and trafficking for sexual exploitation. Wiqas Mahmud, 42, from Huddersfield, received a sentence of six years and three months for a single rape offence. Lastly, Mohammed Imran Ibrar, 38, from Huddersfield, was sentenced to five years for sexual assault and one rape offence; however, due to time already served, he will serve approximately three years and six months.
The investigation into these crimes was part of Operation Tendersea, a comprehensive effort by West Yorkshire Police that began in 2018. The operation has led to the conviction of 42 men involved in child sexual abuse, some of whom have faced multiple trials. The investigation uncovered a disturbing pattern of abuse that spanned from 1995 to 2013, highlighting the extent of the criminal network operating within Huddersfield and surrounding areas.
Detective Chief Inspector Ian Thornes of West Yorkshire Police described the operation as a major investigation into what he termed “truly evil sexual abuse.” He emphasized that the victims were vulnerable young teenage girls subjected to heinous acts by individuals whose conduct rendered them unfit to walk the streets. The case underscores the ongoing efforts by law enforcement to combat such deeply rooted criminal activities and protect vulnerable members of the community.
