Asian grooming victim speaks out
A Muslim teenager who was sexually abused by gangs of men is urging other victims to speak out against such crimes. The 19 year old says she suffered in silence for years because of a culture of shame and honour within the Asian community. Our reporter Shabnam Mahmood first spoke to her shortly after her ordeal. Almost two years later she is now rebuilding her life and hopes her story will help other victims. The teenager's words have been voiced by an actor to protect her identity.
