She said the abuse began when she was in a children's home and started to hang around Rochdale market, where one of the defendants, Mohammed Zahid, had a stall.

She denied claims she was lying in order to get compensation, telling Minshull Street Crown Court she wanted social services to "take responsibility".

A girl allegedly used as a "sex slave" by a grooming gang was labelled a "prostitute" from age 10 by social services, a court has heard.

The victim, now in her 30s, said she had read the "vile" description in a Rochdale social services file.
