Mother who had been forced into an arranged marriage is jailed for filming herself having sex with her 14-year-old son and sending the clips to relatives in Pakistan

• Vile mother filmed having sex with her teenage son in sick porn video
• Clips sent to cousin in Pakistan who allegedly asked her to make film
• She also sent her relative indecent images of her three-year-old daughter 

A vile mother was jailed for five years today for filming home-made porn movies with her own schoolboy son.

The mother, 36, was filmed having sex with her 14-year-old son - and sent the mobile phone clips to a family member living abroad.

A court heard she made a video of her carrying out sex acts with the teenager - and also other images of her three-year-old daughter.

The home-made pornography was sent to her cousin in Pakistan who allegedly had asked her to make the material.

The mother-of-four's 'shocking' crime only came to light when another of her daughters borrowed her son's phone - and came across the vile videos.

Prosecutor Ian Kolvin said the first of the videos of the mother and her son contained images of oral sex and other sex acts.

'She was telling him to take the video. It showed full intercourse. It showed the son with his naked mother, rubbing her breasts and vaginal area,' said Mr Kolvin.

When the police seized her mobile phone they discovered indecent images not only of her son but also of her three-year-old daughter.

Mr Kolvin said the woman, of St Mellons, Cardiff, told police in interview that she had agreed to video herself having sex with her son to please her cousin in Pakistan.

Her son, in a victim impact statement read to the court, said: 'I feel upset and ashamed of what she did. She should not have done it but I miss her very much.'

Her elder daughter told the court: 'I worry about my mum.'

Ruth Smith, defending, said her cultural background had made her particularly vulnerable and 'highly suggestible'.

Recorder of Cardiff Judge Eleri Rees (pictured) called the sex offences 'truly shocking'

She said the mother was forced to leave education at the age of 13 to work in the family business and into an 'abusive and violent' arranged marriage

Miss Smith said she had accepted the situation and 'her lot in life'.

She said: 'She appears to be a person that is very anxious to please and she will change accounts in order to satisfy what somebody is asking of her. 

She is highly suggestible of others.

'She was subjected to abuse by her husband and that is something she has accepted as her lot in society.'

Miss Smith told Merthyr Tydfil Crown Court that social services had given her a stark choice - to leave her husband or lose her children.

'She has lived her life within her culture as one that is expected of her - a devoted daughter and loving wife.

'She has been subjected to significant abuse. That coupled with her suggestibility may have resulted in a vulnerable individual.

'She was expected to do what she was told and she did not want to create conflict.

'It is clear she is a lady who deeply loves her children despite these offences. She is worried about the future and what will happen to them.'

Recorder of Cardiff Judge Eleri Rees said: 'These are truly shocking offences. Your duty was to your children. To that you failed in the gravest possible way.'

The woman admitted six counts including sexual activity with a family member, taking and distributing indecent images of a child reflecting 119 images and three movies.

She was jailed for a total of five years. She will have to sign as a sex offender for life and will be the subject of an indefinite Sexual Harm Prevention Order.
