A GROOMING gang victim was held prisoner for 12 years and forced into EIGHT abortions after being abducted outside a Tesco as a teenager.

The case has been described by House of Lords crossbencher Baroness Caroline Cox as one of the worst examples of sexual grooming to emerge in Britain.

The white British girl, identified only as Sarah, was snatched outside a local supermarket when she was 15 and forced into two marriages while being held by a grooming gang.

Sarah told The Daily Mail how she was raped on the second night she was held captive by her abductor, who has been named 'Jerry'.

She said: “I was pulling back from him and I was scared. I felt angry, dirty and disgusted after he had finished.”

Sarah said she was repeatedly raped while being held captive and forced to carry out domestic chores while wearing Islamic dress.

Jerry later told her that he had married her and even showed Sarah the Islamic wedding certificate signed by an Imam from a local mosque.

Sarah said she was given sedative drug Valium every day to keep her compliant.

She fell pregnant eight times and had an abortion to end each pregnancy.

Shortly before she escaped, she was forced into a second marriage had a ceremony with a man who she had only seen for the first time that day.

Her parents say they repeatedly tried to alert police but were fobbed off by authorities.

She eventually escaped just days after her second marriage and has been forced to move to another part of the country so the gang don't find her again.

Sarah said: "When Jerry was asleep upstairs one morning, I found his mobile phone and called for a taxi. I took £20 to pay for it from the pocket of his jeans.

"When the taxi arrived I was in Islamic clothes. I raced out through the back gate and told the driver, a white man who kept asking if I was all right because I was so pale, to take me to where my brother lived."

Police are trying to gather enough evidence for the Crown Prosecution Service to bring charges against the gang members.

Britain has been rocked by a series of child grooming scandals, mainly carried out by Muslim men.

Since 2011, groups of men have been prosecuted for organised sex grooming crimes against hundreds of girls in Rochdale, Rotherham, Oxford, Telford, Leeds, Birmingham, Norwich, Burnley, High Wycombe, Leicester, Dewsbury, Middlesbrough, Peterborough, Bristol, Halifax and Newcastle.

In only two of those cases were the men not of South Asian heritage. Of all the victims, only three were not white teenage girls.

The abuse in Rotherham is believed to have been the most widespread with an estimated 1,400 children believed to have been abused between 1997 and 2013 in the South Yorkshire town.
