Two Afghan asylum seekers sentenced for raping 15-year-old girl in UK

Two 17-year-old boys from Afghanistan, who were living in the UK as asylum seekers, were sentenced for a very serious crime.

They met a 15-year-old girl in a park and took her to a quiet spot where they hurt her.

The girl was very scared and asked for help.

A man saw her and told her to call the police.

The police used videos from the girl's phone and cameras to find the boys.

The boys said they were sorry and were sentenced to many years in a special prison for young people.

One of the boys might have to leave the UK, but the other might be able to stay.

Many people are upset about this crime, especially because it happened at a time when some people are not very nice to immigrants.
