A SINGLE mum has given details of her terrifying ordeal at the hands of kidnappers who subjected her to a serious sexual assault.

The 33-year-old was dragged into a car as she walked along Stonyhurst Road in Blackburn on her way to a nearby garage on Tuesday night.

She was driven to Pleasington Cemetery where one of her kidnappers forced her into bushes and assaulted her.

The attackers made off with her handbag containing £18 in cash after appearing to be disturbed. The woman was taken to Blackburn police station after walking to the main road and flagging down a car.

Police are hunting for two Asian men in their late 20s or early 30s in connection with the attack, which occurred at around 10pm.

The man who carried out the attack is around 5ft 4ins tall with a stocky build, dark hair in a short back and sides, fat lips and a slight double chin.

He was wearing white traditional Asian dress of trousers and a long top.

The driver of the white, four-door car used for the kidnap, is very thin with very short hair, in almost a skinhead cut. He was wearing a brown jacket.

The woman, who lives in Blackburn, has told police the car drew up in front of her as she walked along Stonyhurst Road and a man got out of the front passenger seat before bundling her into the back of the vehicle.

Anyone with information about the incident is asked to contact Blackburn Police on 51212.
