Six key members of a grooming gang convicted for abusing young girls in Oxford between 1998 and 2005 have been released from prison early, with two no longer on licence. The gang was responsible for raping victims after supplying them with drugs and alcohol. This group was among seven Pakistani men jailed in 2013 for these crimes. The early release has drawn criticism from public figures, including a former Detective Superintendent at Scotland Yard, who highlighted concerns about the offenders returning to communities where victims are attempting to rebuild their lives. Separately, Irfan Khan was sentenced to 12 years for multiple counts of rape and threats related to a grooming gang active in Kirklees from 1999 to 2012, while two men, Farhang Taha and Attullah Areen, are awaiting sentencing for sexually abusing girls in Coventry between 2016 and 2018.
