Rotherham peer Lord Ahmed charged with fourth child sex offence
 [Rotherham Advertiser] ROTHERHAM peer Lord Nazir Ahmed has appeared at court — alongside his two brothers — charged with a fourth historical child sex offence.The peer faced the further allegation of buggery against a boy under 11 when he appeared at Sheffield Crown Court yesterday (Wednesday). Ahmed, of East Bawtry Road, Rotherham, appeared at the lower court last month charged with indecently assaulting the boy and two counts of attempted rape against a girl aged under 16 in the early 1970s. The former Labour politician would have been aged between 14 to 17 when the alleged abuse took place against the two complainants. No pleas have been formally entered but Ahmed’s solicitor told reporters at last month’s hearing outside Sheffield Magistrates' Court “he will be doing everything he can in order to prove his innocence”. His brothers (below L-R Tariq and Farouq) have denied sexually abusing the same boy between 1968 to 1972. Posted by: Bright Pebbles 2019-04-19 |
