'SICK ATTACK' Girl, 17, ‘raped by four Afghan nationals including 16-year-old boy over several hours after being lured to home’
A TEEN girl was raped by four Afghan nationals including a 16-year-old boy after being lured to a home and plied with vodka, a court heard.
Mehrab Safi, 21, Awal Ahmadzai and Salman Habibkheil, both 19, and the schoolboy allegedly attacked the girl in Bristol.
Jurors heard she had been out with a friend Christmas shopping when they got talking to Safi, who they had not met before.
He later asked her to add him on social media platform Snapchat before requesting nude photographs of her on November 28.
Two days later, Safi allegedly arranged for a taxi to take her from her home in Somerset to Bristol in the early hours.
She was initially dropped off in an industrial area of the city, where Safi was waiting with Habibkheil, before they got into another taxi which took them to a house in the St Werburghs area.
Once there, she was provided with cigarettes and vodka before being allegedly raped by Safi and his co-defendants, Bristol Crown Court heard.
Ed Hetherington, prosecuting, said: “The prosecution say that they sexually abused a young girl who Mr Safi had met and began grooming only days before the rapes took place.
“On November 30 last year, Mr Safi and Mr Habibkheil arranged for her to be brought by taxi to meet them in Bristol in the early hours of a Sunday morning.
“Once she arrived, she was taken to a home in St Werburghs and she was very quickly expected to have sex with Mr Safi.
