Three men have admitted paying a “very damaged and vulnerable” 16-year-old girl for sex.

They pleaded guilty shortly before the girl was due to give evidence in the men’s trial at Leicester Crown Court.

Aabidali Mubarak Ali, 39, Rakib Iacub, 20, and Wajid Usman, all of Leicester, will be sentenced on 30 August.

They had been accused of a total of 22 charges, but between them admitted seven of them.
