Fahad Bilal, 26, and his wife, Akeela Ali, 25, started the day with a family shopping trip to Shepherd's Bush Westfield shopping centre with their two children, aged 3 and 5.

Unlike most family shopping trips, it ended when they were caught on CCTV having oral sex by the shopping centre lifts while their children watched, according to Central News reporters at Hammersmith magistrates' court.

Ali later told police said she "thought about stopping" when their children interrupted, but carried on because "it just happened".
