In the British city of Liverpool, 10 boys - aged between 12 and 19 - have been arrested in connection with a sex attack on a woman (43) in the Anfield area.

Merseyside Police say the victim was targeted in her own home by a group of males a month ago.

A girl (15) was also questioned about the assault.

All 11 people have been released on bail, and officers are appealing for information from the local community.

Detective Superintendent Tim Keelan said: "The victim has been distressed by her ordeal and is being supported by specialist officers."

"This was an appalling attack on a woman in her own home and we would urge anyone who has information, which could help us bring those responsible to justice, to come forward."

"It is possible that some of those who were in the flat on the day may have talked to people, including friends or family, about what happened and if they have we would urge them to contact us."
