Rochdale gang guilty of raping and assaulting girls for five years
- On June 13, 2025, seven men were found guilty of sexually abusing two girls in Rochdale between 2001 and 2006 following a trial held at a court in Manchester.
- These convictions followed a four-month trial arising from Greater Manchester Police's Operation Lytton, which investigated non-recent child sexual exploitation in Rochdale.
- The offenders, including market stallholders and taxi drivers, groomed the victims from age 13, supplying drugs and alcohol and forcing sex in cars and dilapidated flats across the town.
- Prosecutor Rossano Scamardella explained that the girls were exploited by multiple individuals, subjected to mistreatment and humiliation, and ultimately abandoned, with one victim testifying that she was targeted by more than 200 men.
- The verdicts delivered by the jury highlight ongoing efforts against grooming gangs, with additional trials planned and 32 offenders already jailed for 300 years collectively.
