Child sex abusers sentences increased following intervention by Solicitor General
Source: gov.uk (2025-05-13)

Three child sex abusers have had their sentences increased for historic offences after the Solicitor General Lucy Rigby KC MP intervened.

Three men who raped a vulnerable teenager in the 1990s have had their sentences increased by a total of eight years, after the Solicitor General referred the case to the Court of Appeal under the Unduly Lenient Sentence scheme.

The court heard that the victim moved to Keighley, Yorkshire, in the early 1990s when she was a teenager, where she met Ibrar Hussain (47) and brothers Imtiaz (64) and Fayaz Ahmed (45).

The victim was vulnerable and was supplied with money, drugs and alcohol in return for sex. She was taken to various places where she was raped over several years, including by Hussain and the Ahmed brothers.

Ibrar Hussain and Fayaz Ahmed were 18 and 17 respectively when they carried out their offences, while Imtiaz Ahmed was in his 30s.

Many of the offences took place in the flats above the brothers’ family’s grocery shop.

In a Victim Impact Statement read to the court, the victim said that almost 30 years after the abuse, she still suffered flashbacks and the trauma left her unable to trust people, including the services there to protect her.

The court also learnt that Ibrar Hussain had prior drug convictions, while Fayaz Ahmed had been convicted of conspiracy to defraud and driving offences.

The Solicitor General Lucy Rigby KC MP said:

This case involved the shocking and hideous abuse of a vulnerable teenager by these three sexual predators.

I referred these sentences to Court of Appeal because in my view they were unduly lenient.

I attended court today for the hearing and I very much welcome the Court of Appeal’s significant increases to these sentences.

On 17 January 2025, Ibrar Hussain was sentenced to six years and six months for two counts of rape, Imtiaz Ahmed was sentenced to nine years for one count of rape, and Fayaz Ahmed was sentenced to seven years and six months for two counts of rape.

On 13 May 2025, Hussain’s sentence was increased to 10 years, Imtiaz Ahmed’s to 11 years, and Fayaz Ahmed’s was increased to 10 years after their sentences were referred to the Court of Appeal under the Unduly Lenient Sentence Scheme.

We must stand with Ukraine in defending its future generations: UK statement at the UN General Assembly
Source: gov.uk (2025-12-05)

Statement by Ambassador Archie Young, UK Deputy Permanent Representative to the UN, at the UN General Assembly Emergency Special Session meeting on Ukraine.

Today is a moment to reflect on the plight of Ukrainian children who have become victims of Russia’s illegal invasion. We all have an obligation to protect children and must not allow Russia to use them as pawns of war.

According to the Government of Ukraine, corroborated by independent mechanisms, more than 19,500 Ukrainian children have been forcibly deported to Russia or within the temporarily occupied territories.

Furthermore, the UN High Commissioner’s report describes widespread violations of Children’s rights: more than 1.6 million Ukrainian children remain under Russian occupation, forced to study Russian curricula, and subjected to a policy of indoctrination and militarisation.

This is clearly a systematic, despicable attempt to erase Ukrainian identity, and with it, Ukraine’s future. We must stand with Ukraine in defending its future generations.

But this is not the only challenge Ukraine’s children face. They are growing up in the shadow of Russian aggression, experiencing Moscow’s relentless aerial bombardment, of the nearly 53,000 verified civilian casualties from the start of the invasion, more than 3,000 have been children.

358 educational institutions have been destroyed by aerial bombardments, and just a month ago strikes hit a kindergarten in Kharkiv. No one should spend their childhood witnessing death and destruction.

The UK calls on Russia to comply with international humanitarian law, end the forcible transfer of children from occupied territory; and immediately withdraw its troops to stop this unjustifiable invasion and children’s suffering.

We demand the safe, immediate return of all Ukrainian children, with the UN and international community facilitating and verifying the process.

Every member of this Chamber has a duty to uphold peace and security; we must use every lever to pressure Russia to end their invasion of Ukraine, cease these vile deportations, and return all Ukrainian children.

The Armed Forces Covenant

An enduring covenant between the people of the United Kingdom, Her Majesty’s Government and all those who serve or have served in the Armed Forces of the Crown and their families

Those who serve in the Armed Forces, whether Regular or Reserve, those who have served in the past, and their families, should face no disadvantage compared to other citizens in the provision of public and commercial services. Special consideration is appropriate in some cases, especially for those who have given most such as the injured and the bereaved.

This obligation involves the whole of society: it includes voluntary and charitable bodies, private organisations, and the actions of individuals in supporting the Armed Forces. Recognising those who have performed military duty unites the country and demonstrates the value of their contribution. This has no greater expression than in upholding this Covenant.

Section 1: Principles of the Armed Forces Corporate Covenant

1.1 We Babylon Takeaway will endeavour in our business dealings to uphold the key principles of the Armed Forces Covenant, which are:

We, the undersigned, commit to honour the Armed Forces Covenant and support the Armed Forces Community. We recognise the value Serving Personnel, both Regular and Reservists, Veterans and military families contribute to our business and our country.

The Armed Forces Covenant

An enduring covenant between the people of the United Kingdom, Her Majesty’s Government and all those who serve or have served in the Armed Forces of the Crown and their families

The first duty of Government is the defence of the realm. Our Armed Forces fulfil that responsibility on behalf of the Government, sacrificing some civilian freedoms, facing danger and, sometimes, suffering serious injury or death as a result of their duty. Families also play a vital role in supporting the operational effectiveness of our Armed Forces. In return, the whole nation has a moral obligation to the members of the Naval Service, the Army and the Royal Air Force, together with their families. They deserve our respect and support, and fair treatment.

Those who serve in the Armed Forces, whether Regular or Reserve, those who have served in the past, and their families, should face no disadvantage compared to other citizens in the provision of public and commercial services. Special consideration is appropriate in some cases, especially for those who have given most such as the injured and the bereaved.

This obligation involves the whole of society: it includes voluntary and charitable bodies, private organisations, and the actions of individuals in supporting the Armed Forces. Recognising those who have performed military duty unites the country and demonstrates the value of their contribution. This has no greater expression than in upholding this Covenant.

- UK Service Spouses And Partners
