Sex offender sent texts after release

A SEX offender faces sentencing by a judge after breaching his court order.

Umber Kareem, 21, of Albion Street in Huddersfield, pleaded guilty to breaching the terms of his Sexual Risk Order. The order was imposed following his conviction for sexual offences against a woman. He breached the order after sending her 49 text messages between November 16 and December 13.

District Judge Michael Fanning, sitting at Kirklees Magistrates’ Court told him: “You’ve only recently been released from prison having been sentenced for sexual offences against the same complainant in this case.”

Kareem will be sentenced at Leeds Crown Court by the judge who originally dealt with the case. He was remanded in custody. A TEENAGER has been using her Christmas holidays to feed the homeless.

Keanna Sheehy, 13, has been collecting donations of money, food and gifts in Huddersfield and Elland.

And The Brooksbank, Elland, pupil has been using the cash to feed homeless people and buy them clothes.

Proud mum Barbara said: “She’s been speaking to homeless people on the streets in Huddersfield and offering them food parcels.

“She bought some fleeces and gloves from Primark for some so they had some warm clothes.

“She’s had chat with them.

“One lad told her he’d not slept for four days.

“We always check for local hostels or places that can access help so we directed him to one.

“I’m really proud of her, our whole family like to think of others, but when your child does something like this you feel so much pride and I know she understands about the world.

“Thank you from Keanna to everyone who donated.”

Collecting from Elland and Huddersfield businesses raised £115.50 and she used the money to make food parcels.

On Tuesday she distributed the food p a r c e l s among homeless people in Huddersfield. Any food produce left over was taken to the Welcome Centre in Huddersfield.
