Brave Woaman demands law change to stop her rapist meeting their son

Sammy Woodhouse is calling for an urgent change in the law after her jailed rapist, who is the father of her child, was offered help by social workers to be involved in their son's upbringing.

Sammy was just 14 when she was raped and fell pregnant by Arshid Hussain, who originates from Pakistan, is currently serving a 35-year jail term for his crimes.



Sammy claims social workers offered support to Hussain to help him contact his son. He was told he could have his son visit him behind bars and start a claim for his family to have custody of the child, it is alleged.



Sammy said: "I was absolutely mortified when I found out. The fact that [the council] didn't even tell me what they were doing until I was at court.



She went on to say: "My son is not his son. He's my son. And my son said to me a few years ago, 'Mum, am I a rape baby?' and I said, 'No, you're not. You're my baby.'



She demands law change to stop Arshid Hussain meeting their son.
