'The CPS made the decision that the three men should be charged after reviewing a file of evidence from South Yorkshire Police.

'The CPS reminds all concerned that criminal proceedings against these defendants are active and that they have a right to a fair trial.

'It is extremely important that there should be no reporting, commentary or sharing of information online which could in any way prejudice these proceedings.'
