Teacher Muhammad Taimoor charged with schoolgirl sex assault

A teacher from Stechford has been charged with sexually assaulting several schoolgirls.

Muhammad Taimoor – who works at a school in Birmingham – is accused of sexually assaulting four girls.

Two of the girls are aged 15, one is 14 and the other 16-years-old.

It’s alleged that some of the assaults happened while he was at work.

He’s also been charged with four counts of causing or inciting child sexual exploitation, sexual activity while in a position of trust, and two counts of trafficking within the UK.

The latter two charges relate to accusations that he drove girls around in his car with the intention of sexually assaulting them.

Taimoor was initially arrested on 9 May on suspicion of sexual assault and released on conditional police bail.

However, West Midlands Police moved to arrest him again in the early hours of Saturday (14 May) at his home in Richmond Road, Stechford.

A spokesman for the force, said: “Trained officers are supporting pupils at the school and we are working with partners to ensure safeguarding is in place while the investigation continues.

“We take allegations of this nature seriously and anyone with any concerns is asked to contact officers in the Public Protection unit on 101, extension 862 6006.”

What happened when he appeared at court?

Wearing a white Levi’s t-shirt and grey jogging bottoms, Taimoor spoke only to confirm his name, date of birth and address during a short hearing on Monday.

He was not required to enter pleas to any of the 14 charges.

The court heard it is alleged some of the assaults happened while the defendant was at work.

Taimoor is also accused of driving the girls around in his car with the intention of sexually assaulting them.

He was remanded into custody by District Judge David Murray to appear at Birmingham Crown Court on June 13.
