THE trial of four men accused of sexually abusing two teenage girls and plying them with drink and drugs has been adjourned until next year.
Amin Aslam (36), of Leatham Avenue, Masbrough, Yasser Iqbal Hussain (35), of Norborough Road, Tinsley, Azad Akram Raja (35), of Adney Street, Sheffield, and a fourth defendant, who cannot be named for legal reasons, went on trial on Monday at Sheffield Crown Court accused of 12 child sex offences.
