Refugee Abderrahim Elmuoden among men jailed after Hull disorder

Also jailed for his part in the disorder was Scott Rushworth, 33, of Lambwath Hall Court in Hull.

Appearing at Hull Crown Court earlier for sentencing having previously pleaded guilty to one count of violent disorder, the court heard Rushworth had been part of of a group who attacked a police officer and took their shield.

Rushworth could be seen posing with the shield on CCTV footage shown in court.

In mitigation for Rushworth, his defence barrister said their client was an “excellent father” who “did not hold racist views”, but was “disgusted by himself” for the part he played in the disorder.

Sentencing Rushworth to 28 months in prison, Judge Thackray said the footage he had seen was “horrifying and depressing”, and said 11 officers had been injured in the disorder – including one who had been “permanently scarred”.

The judge said Rushworth, who had a history of offending including a football banning order, was “at one point at the front of the disorder”, and was “in the thick of it” when the officer was “tackled to the ground”.

Rushworth also received a five-year Criminal Behaviour Order (CBO), banning him from gathering with others in a way people might find intimidating.
