Telford grooming gang ringleader set for prison release - but victim wants it stopped One of the ringleaders of the Telford grooming gang scandal - exposed by the Mirror - has been cleared for parole halfway through his third jail sentence for sexual offences.
Sultan was jailed in 2019 alongside three others for sexually abusing a vulnerable girl who was "passed around like a piece of meat", forced to perform sex acts in a churchyard and raped above a shop.
We revealed the previous year how another victim was lured into the gang’s grooming network by Sultan, who had sold her phone number to other men in Telford.
The trial was the result of Operation Vapour, launched by West Mercia Police in 2018 after the Sunday Mirror revealed that up to 1,000 girls had been abused in the Shropshire town over four decades.
But one of his victims has told the Mirror she wants the Justice Secretary to intervene and ask the Parole Board to reconsider its decision.
