Rochdale: So, there’s this trial going on where some teenage girls say they were raped by older Asian men. But the accused guys are saying the girls are just lying to get some quick cash.

Eight men are facing serious charges for alleged sexual offenses against two girls from 2001 to 2006. The girls, who can’t be named, are referred to as Girl A and Girl B.

The court heard that most of the accused were taxi drivers or market traders. They allegedly passed the girls around for sex and then just discarded them.

One of the accused, Mohammed Zahid, admitted he knew Girl A but denied any sexual contact. He claimed the allegations were all about money. He even suggested the girls were after “dirty money.”

Another accused, Mushtaq Ahmed, initially denied knowing Girl B but later admitted he lied about it. He said he was scared of the other men involved and felt he had to keep quiet for his safety.

The trial has revealed some pretty wild claims. One guy, Mohammed Shahzad, suggested that if the girls got a bunch of men convicted, they could make a lot of money. He even compared it to a car crash scam.

As the trial continues, it’s clear that there are a lot of conflicting stories. The accused men are adamant they’re innocent, while the girls maintain their claims. It’s a tough situation for everyone involved, and the court will have to sift through all the details to get to the truth.

The trial is still ongoing, and it’s definitely a case to keep an eye on.
