"On Friday, Mr Justice Lavender told Ahmed: "Your actions have had profound and lifelong effects on the girl and the boy, who have lived with what you did to them for between 46 and 53 years. "Their statements express more eloquently than I ever could how your actions have affected their lives in so many different and damaging ways." The survivor of the attempted rapes read her own victim personal statement in court, saying: "An overwhelming feeling of shame remained with me throughout my childhood and early adult years. "It was a burden I was made to carry, and it silenced me for many years. It is now time for me to pass that burden to him â the paedophile who I know feels no personal shame.""
