Brothers jailed for historical sexual offenses

Three brothers who abused girls at the age of six have been imprisoned.

He denied a total of 62 crimes, dating and in Barrow and Leeds between 1996 and 2012, but was convicted after a test in the Preston Crown Court in October.

49 -year -old Shah Amaran Mia of Bismarck Street, Leeds and 38 -year -old Shah Joman Mia, Leades of Rowland Terres, both were sentenced to life and each will get a minimum of 22 years of service.

Shah Alman Mia, 47, of Warmasworth Road, Doncaster, was sentenced to 14 years, of which at least 10 people were spent in jail.

The court heard that the victims were prepared and gifts, alcohol and cigarettes were given, and they were threatened with physical violence if they told someone what was happening to them.

Judge UNSWORTH said that men were “very high risk” and he had taken away the childhood of his victims.

“I am satisfied that each of you worked in a hunter and pedophilic way.

He said, “You used your victims as vehicles and misused at will, you treated them completely contempt”, he said.

During the trial, the prosecutors portrayed the brothers as “Team Mia”, put the family’s loyalty to the truth, each supported the refusal of his brothers and tried to discredit the witnesses.

While sentenced, Judge An place said: “You were aware of each other’s sexual harassment and conduct at different times.

“The bonds connecting all three together are strong and it will look unwavering.”

He stopped them from signing the register of sexual criminals for life, complying with sexual disadvantage prevention orders and contacting them with their victims.

Speaking after the sentence, Cumbria Police’s Det C C Insply John Graham-Cumming, said it was a “long and complex investigation” that included officers in other areas of the country.

He said, “The defendants hunted young girls and also used the dangers of violence to warn them to tell what was happening to the authorities,” he said.

“In this case the victims and witnesses have shown bravery and courage.”
