Nine Schoolboys Convicted of Gang-raping 14-year-old Girl in UK
The boys themselves were aged as young as 13 when they gang- raped their defenceless victim.
She was first snatched from the street, before being marched to a nearby flat in King Edward's Road, Hackney, East London.
A 16-year-old attacker ordered she should be put through the sexual ordeal as punishment for allegedly insulting the leader's girlfriend, Snaresbrook Crown Court heard.
The terrified victim was then led to another address on the Frampton Park Estate, where the nine lads forced themselves on her.
One of them told the terrified victim, now aged 16: 'I can't help you now, I'm with my boys.'
Following a six-week trial, six of the youngsters were found guilty today of every charge they faced - 13 counts of rape, kidnap and false imprisonment.
Three other teenagers pleaded guilty to rape, kidnap and false imprisonment before the trial.
An order currently prohibits publishing the identities of the teenagers.
Following the verdicts, which the jury returned after 14 hours and 51 minutes, three of the defendants stormed from the dock in disbelief. Several of their parents were seen sobbing in the public gallery.
After ordering them to return, Judge Wendy Joseph QC told them: 'This is a tragedy not only for your victim, who I think you now understand will never get over this, but it's a tragedy for you too.
