MOHAMMED ZUBAIR AND SHOCKING SEX OFFENSES IN BIRMINGHAM
| Red Rose Database
Birmingham Child Sexual Abuser
A distressing incident unfolded in Birmingham involving Mohammed Zubair, a 58-year-old taxi driver from Crowther Road, Erdington, who engaged in a heinous act of sexual assault against a teenage girl. The events came to light during a court hearing when it was revealed that Zubair deliberately intoxicated a 14-year-old girl in order to exploit her sexually. The victim, overwhelmed and unwell due to the alcohol, experienced a suicide attempt as a consequence of what transpired.
According to Sarah Allen, who prosecuted the case at Birmingham Crown Court, Zubair's behavior was appallingly predatory. She described how he engaged in inappropriate and sexualized conversations with others, including his partner, discussing making sex videos and talking about underage girls. These discussions were described as highly inappropriate and indicative of a concerning sexualized mindset.
Miss Allen detailed the timeline of the assault. The teenage girl was sitting on a sofa at a residence in Birmingham when she became so unwell after being forced to drink alcohol that she vomited. During this vulnerable moment, Zubair took advantage of her weakened state, administering further abuse while she was incapacitated. It was emphasized that she was conscious and aware of her surroundings at the time, but her condition made her especially vulnerable.
The court heard that the sexual encounter was the girl's first experience of sex, adding a layer of trauma to the incident. A few days following the assault, she confided in a friend about what had occurred, marking the beginning of her struggle with the aftermath of the assault. The emotional and psychological toll on the young girl was significant; she has since undergone counseling and expressed feelings of disgust and despair, including thoughts of self-harm and wanting to go to hell.
Judge Richard Bond, presiding over the case, addressed Zubair directly during sentencing. He remarked on Zubair’s apparent awareness of the effects of alcohol on a young girl, despite Zubair himself not consuming alcohol. The judge remarked that the victim’s mental health had been deeply affected, and he condemned Zubair for targeting a particularly vulnerable child. The judge condemned Zubair for ensuring the girl was intoxicated to manipulate her into compliance, noting that she vomited during the incident and that Zubair had taken full advantage of her weakened state. It was also noted that the girl had explicitly told Zubair 'no' at least once, indicating that consent was not given.
Zubair’s defense attorney, Jonathan Barker, pointed out that his client had no significant prior criminal convictions aside from a 2014 case related to his work as a taxi driver. Mr. Barker explained that Zubair suffers from health issues and claimed that the recent behavior was out of character, expressing remorse for his actions. Despite this, the court found the offense to be severe and deserving of a substantial sentence.
In light of these crimes, Zubair was sentenced to six years in prison. Additionally, he will be registered as a sex offender for life, reflecting the gravity of his misconduct and the ongoing concern for community safety. The case highlights the grave dangers posed by predatory individuals who exploit their position of trust and the vulnerability of minors, especially within the city of Birmingham.
