Six Muslim siblings jailed for brutal attempt to kidnap and assault woman who was in relationship with their sister

Five Muslim sisters and a brother have been jailed for up to six years for assaulting and attempting to kidnap a woman who was in a relationship with their sister.

Sarah Harrison, 35, was targeted as she left her place of work in Blackburn, Lancashire, as the family sought to discover where she and her partner Nazma Ditta, 28, were living.

CCTV captured the fierce struggle that Miss Harrison put up as she fended off attempts to bundle her into a car in broad daylight on June 20 last year.

Preston Crown Court heard how Miss Harrison feared that acid would be thrown in her face as shouts of “get her in, get her, you’ve messed with the wrong Muslims” were heard.

She was confronted by sisters Atfah Ditta, 32, and Ghazala Ditta, 31, who got out of a parked silver Toyota Corolla car.
