A key witness in the Rotherham child sexual exploitation trial has been cross-examined today at Sheffield Crown Court.
The woman says when she was 13 she was raped multiple times by a number of Asian men. When questioned by defence barristers, she denied making up the claims in order to make money.
She said "this is about justice." Eight men deny sixteen historical charges, including rape and indecent assault.
20-year-old Callum Worsley, of Oates Avenue in Rawmarsh, admitted two counts of engaging in sexual activity with two girls under the age of 16.
He pleaded guilty at Sheffield Crown Court last Friday.
Worsley also received 100 hours community service and a 10-year sexual harm prevention order.
