    A Bradford man who was jailed for fathering three children by his own daughter has died in prison.

    81-year-old Ashraf Khan was sentenced to four and a half years in prison at Bradford Crown Court in July after pleading guilty to three counts of incest.

    His barrister said Mr Khan suffered from poor health but accepted not serving a jail term would be unjust.

    The convict died in the prison healthcare unit after undergoing surgery at the weekend.
