Muslim leader found guilty of sexually abusing girls

One of Scotland's most prominent Muslim community leaders is facing jail after being found guilty of sexually abusing girls.

Farooq Hussain's reputation lay in tatters last night, after a jury found him guilty of a catalogue of abuse over five years.

The 56-year-old businessman, who owned a string of restaurants and held high-profile charity events, was found guilty of three charges after a week-long trial at Perth Sheriff Court.
