A man has been locked up for 14 years for sex offences against children in Huddersfield.

Abu-Bakr Saddique, of Arnold Street, Birkby, had denied all the charges.

But he was convicted after a trial at Leeds Crown Court.

Saddique, 37, faced three charges of rape between December 1999 and December 2001. The alleged victim was a boy aged under 16.

He was also accused of three indecent assaults on a child under the age of 16. Those offences are alleged to have taken place between 1996 and 2001.

Saddique was found guilty by a jury on all charges.

He was sentenced to 14 years on each of the three rape charges and four years on each of the indecent assault charges. The sentences will run concurrently.

He will also have to register as a sex offender.
