'Let's name the guilty men'

David AinsworthDate/Time: 10/01/25 18:06:00It's all very well for some people to turn accusations of what are obviously major sex crimes against children into a defence against so called politically (by the Conservatives) motivated racism against groups of Pakistani Muslims.To many the 'crime' of racism seems to be more heinous than the crime of child rape.However I have not seen such accusations made against other ethnic or religious groups.Now I know many will stop reading here for below are descriptions of these crimes and their perpetrators taken from today's MailOnline - a well known extreme right wing publication. (boo ! hiss !).What I cannot really understand is why these criminals cannot be deported to to their place of birth and origin.Can anyone explain ?"Violated all over again and haunted by the paedophiles who raped us: How the evil Rochdale Nine have been handed a fortune in legal aid so that a decade on only ONE has been deported - to the anguish of victims" 'Few people outside the town of Rochdale would recognise Abdul Rauf if they saw him. But for those in the know in this Greater Manchester town, the sight of the 55-year-old paedophile, a key figure in one of the UK’s most notorious child grooming gangs, is an utter outrage which strikes at their hearts.By rights this abusive monster should have been deported to his native Pakistan years ago but today, thanks largely to bureaucratic red tape and taxpayer-funded legal filibustering, he’s out of jail and back at home in his red-brick semi with his wife, five children and grandchildren – free to come and go as he pleases.Rauf himself was convicted in 2012 of trafficking a teenage girl and conspiracy to engage in sexual activity with a child after driving one 15-year-old victim to different locations where he and some of his monstrous cronies had sex with her up to 20 times.The men, mainly British Pakistanis, often plied the girls with drink and drugs and passed them around for sex but police initially failed to investigate amid fears of being accused of racism.Mohammed Sajid was found guilty of conspiracy, trafficking, one count of rape and one count of sexual activity with a child.Hamid Safi was found guilty of conspiracy and trafficking.Taxi driver Abdul Aziz, known as 'The Master' was found guilty of conspiracy and trafficking for sexual exploitation.Abdul Qayyum, known as 'Tiger', was found guilty of conspiracy.Kabeer Hassan was found guilty of conspiracy and rape.Adil Khan renounced his Pakistani nationality days before the Court of Appeal ruled he could be stripped of his UK citizenship.Shabir Ahmed was the ringleader of a Rochdale child sex grooming gang who cited human rights laws to appeal against deportation.Mohammed Amin was jailed for five years'.

I think you pre-suppose cultures and religions.

What irony as reported in MailOnline today.'Sir Keir Starmer was today urged to 'get a grip' and sack his Treasury minister Tulip Siddiq amid fresh scrutiny of her property interests.The Hampstead and Highgate MP is currently being probed by a watchdog about her use of homes linked to her aunt, the recently-deposed Bangladeshi prime minister.Ms Siddiq is reported to have used a flat in Hampstead, north London, after it was gifted to her sister by an ally of Sheikh Hasina's Awami League party.It has also emerged that the Treasury minister was given a flat in King's Cross by another associate of senior Awami League members.Her aunt (who has fled to the US) is facing an investigation by an anti-corruption commission in Bangladesh, with Ms Siddiq reportedly named as part of the case.The row deepened today after Ms Siddiq was rebuked by the leader of Bangladesh's interim government, which replaced the Hasina administration in August.Muhammad Yunus told the Sunday Times that London properties used by Ms Siddiq should be investigated and handed back to his government if they were acquired through 'plain robbery'.As economic secretary to the Treasury, Ms Siddiq is responsible for policy on both the City and tackling corruption.The fox in charge of the hen coop !Some might ask regarding both recent child sexual abuse and now questionable financial dealings, whether UK society is being corrupted by those of an alien culture who are not only living in our midst but also governing us.
