## Summary

Shoaib Mohammed, a 34-year-old married man, has been jailed for 11 years for grooming and sexually abusing a girl he knew was 14. The judge said he manipulated her over several months, exploiting her emotional difficulties and presenting himself as a mentor and confidant.

Mohammed contacted the girl on Snapchat in 2021, encouraged her to send sexualised images, then arranged for her to travel from Leicester to meet him in Sheffield. He took her to hotels and repeatedly had sex with her; he pleaded guilty to nine offences, including sexual activity with a child and possessing indecent images. He must serve at least two thirds of his sentence, will be on extended licence for three years and is subject to a 15-year sexual harm prevention order. The victim described lasting difficulties trusting people and said delays in the case had prolonged the impact.
