Three very Asian brothers have been jailed for grooming and sexually abusing teenage girls in West Yorkshire.

Police said the offences took place between 1999 and 2004 and involved three girls who were aged between 13 and 15 at the time.

All the victims were described as “particularly vulnerable” at the time they met Zafar, Ansar and Mohammed Jabbar Qayum, from Dewsbury.

At Leeds Crown Court, all three were convicted of rape.

It follows an ongoing investigation into the sexual exploitation of teenage girls in north Kirklees between 1999 and 2012, police said.

One of the women came forward in 2017 to report what had happened to her, with officers praising the bravery of the victims for their “determination to seek justice”.
