A warrant for the arrest of a man charged with rape and sexual activity with an underage girl was issued by a district judge today after a court heard he boarded a flight to Ireland and hasn't returned to the UK since.

 

It came as 10 men accused of historic child sex offences in Rochdale, including a father-of-seven, made first appearances at Manchester and Salford magistrates court on Wednesday

.Peter Conroy, prosecuting, said police had intelligence Rashid boarded a 5.50am flight to Dublin on April 30 and has not since returned to the UK. Rashid is charged with 13 offences in total, including rape and penetrative sexual activity with an underage girl.

 

Greater Manchester Police (GMP) announced on May 2 11 men were charged in connection with Operation Lytton – an ongoing investigation into historic sex offences against children.

 

They have been accused of multiple offences against three teenage girls, aged between 13 and 17, in Rochdale between 2000 and 2007.

 

All appeared individually before District Judge Mitchell. He told each defendant the charges were so serious they could only be dealt with by a judge at a crown court. All defendants indicated not guilty pleas through their lawyers, but no formal pleas were entered.
