Keighley filmmaker exposing drug crime targeted with abuse

    A Keighley man who created a film exposing drug crime claims he has been subjected to abuse and criminal damage.

    Sabir Hussain, also known as Saby Khan, said people have turned up outside his home brandishing knives, repeatedly attacked cars owned by his family and even mugged his 14-year-old son.

    Mr Hussain worked with his three sons to make a drugs awareness short film earlier this year, shot around Keighley.

    He claims his family have been targeted with abuse since April by people angered by the stand he has taken against their behaviour.

    West Yorkshire Police said: “Local officers are working to support Mr Hussain and his family”.
