YASSER MAHMOOD FROM BIRMINGHAM SENTENCED FOR SEXUAL ASSAULT IN TELFORD
Yasser Mahmood, a 35-year-old resident of Sparkbrook, Birmingham, was involved in a disturbing case where he, along with another individual, carried out a heinous sexual assault on a young girl.
The incident occurred in May 2022 after the girl was groomed by his accomplice, Stevan Marston, who invited her to an address in Telford, Shropshire.
Once she arrived, Marston contacted Mahmood, encouraging him to come over.
Mahmood responded by driving dangerously, reaching speeds of 111mph on the M54 motorway.
Upon his arrival, Mahmood proceeded to rape and sexually assault the girl.
After a three-week trial, both men were convicted of their crimes.
Marston was found guilty of sexual activity with a child, sexual assault by penetration, and possession of cocaine.
Mahmood was convicted of sexual activity with a child, rape, and dangerous driving.
They were sentenced to nine years and nine and a half years in prison, respectively, at Shrewsbury Crown Court.
Detective Constable Rob Allcock from Telford’s Child Sexual Exploitation Team commented, 'We welcome the sentence that has been handed to both Marston and Mahmood.
Both men are dangerous individuals who preyed on a young girl, and it is incomprehensible that they would commit such crimes.
I would like to commend the victim for her bravery throughout the investigation and trial, which was understandably very distressing for her.
And I hope that today’s sentences will help her in gaining closure.'
