They include teenage killers, a grooming gang and drug-dealing brothers

These include the teenager killers who murdered a lad they called a 'friend'. Yousef Sesay, Tafari Smith and Lewis Ludford stabbed Kyle Hackland, aged 17, after being caught in the wrong place at the wrong time. They were each jailed for life. The getaway driver, Alfie Benson, was jailed for 12 years.

He was targeted because of his association with a friend, who one of his killers blamed after he was 'set up' in a drugs deal gone wrong. A gang of four young men out drug dealing set upon Kyle in Withington after they saw him walking with his friend, a man named James Todd. The four can be pictured for the first time after they were sentenced on Tuesday morning. Sesay, of Denton Road, Audenshaw; Smith, of Lancashire Hill, Stockport; Ludford, of Aylesby Avenue, Gorton; were all detained at His Majesty’s pleasure, the equivalent of a life sentence for juveniles. Smith will serve a minimum of 19 years. Sesay and Ludford will serve a minimum of 22 and 21 years respectively.

Bucknor was handed a 25-year prison sentence while Batler was jailed for 24 years. Richards was jailed for eleven years. The rival group then responded with knives which resulted in the killing of Javell Morgan by Crosfield and Doughty. Jamie Kenny, 33, taught other dealers how to break blocks of cocaine in order to ‘maximise profits’, while others were employed in the antiques shop to package up the drug for street selling. Their drugs operation was brought down following the law enforcement hack of the EncroChat network in June 2020, which led to each of the eight gang members being arrested and their houses searched. Officers found designer clothing, expensive watches and numerous phones.

He passed out and ploughed into a viaduct as the busy A road merges onto Great Ancoats Street. Manchester Crown Court heard that his passenger Nadia Yusuf, 17, who was studying to become a paediatrician, suffered terrible injuries and died. Prosecutors told how Jillani was driving on the Mancunian Way on January 10 last year at about 11.30pm when the crash occurred.

Greater Manchester Police said the victims were 'subjected to a terrifying ordeal' inside a house of someone who they trusted, and that, at the time, the victims did 'not understand the seriousness' of the abuse.
