A Salford man has been found guilty of child cruelty in a British legal first after forcing two boys to beat themselves during a religious ceremony.
The jury at Manchester Crown Court found 44-year-old Syed Mustafa Zaidi, of Eccles, guilty on two counts.

The boys, aged 13 and 15, were forced to beat themselves with a zanjeer zani, an implement with blades, during the Ashura ceremony to commemorate the death of a Shia Muslim spiritual leader on January 19.
