Three men have denied raping a teenage girl in Rotherham between 2008 and 2010.

Khamir Ifzal Khan, 36, Mudasser Hussain, 36, and Ghazanfar Hussain, 40, appeared at Sheffield Crown Court on Monday.

The alleged victim was aged 14 or 15 at the time, the National Crime Agency (NCA) has previously said.

All three men, who were arrested as part of Operation Stovewood, an NCA investigation into child sexual exploitation in Rotherham between 1997 and 2013, were bailed and a trial date was set for 5 May 2026.

At Sheffield Crown Court, Khamir Khan, now of no fixed abode but previously from Rotherham, denied two counts of rape and one count of trafficking of a person in the UK.

Mudasser Hussain, of Henley Grove Road, Rotherham, pleaded not guilty to 12 counts of rape.

Ghazanfar Hussain, of Rosebery Street, Rotherham, denied one count of rape.
