Abid Saddiq (38), of Walter Street, Masbrough, who is on trial at Sheffield Crown Court accused of ten offences, was said to have used vulgar language when he told the mother about what he had done to her daughter.

The complainant, known as Girl B, said a man she had known as Abid or 'Dopey Abid' raped her in an alleyway next to Boots in 2000 or 2001 when she would have been 14 or 15 and he was five years older.

In her 2016 police video interview, played to the jury today (Wednesday), Girl B said: “He was so ugly and he stank rotten.

“He took me by the arm and took me down Boots alleyway.

“He took my trousers off and had sex with me.

“I wouldn’t say I was having sex back with him, because I wasn’t.

“Two days later he walked past my mum in Rotherham Market and said, ‘I f***** your daughter the other day’.”

The woman said that her mother had replied: “You dirty b******”.

The woman added: "I didn't want to tell my mum, she never believed me anyway. I was just a little trollop, that's how I saw myself and that's still how I see myself now."

The woman said that Abid would buy her drinks like cider or vodka.

“It used to make me do stuff I would never dream of doing when I was sober,” she said.

“He knew that if I had a drink we would do what he wanted, when he wanted.”

The woman said Abid had control of the situation.

Saddiq denies raping Girl B between December 2000 and December 2001.

The charges have all been brought as part of the National Crime Agency’s Operation Stovewood investigation.

The trial continues.
