Police 'hid' abuse of 60 girls by Asian takeaway workers linked to murder of 14y/o UK girl

Blackpool joins the growing list of UK cities where police and governments enabled Asian gangs to rape and even murder little, white, British girls - sacrificing them on the altar of political correctness! Political correctness is madness!

By JAMES TOZER FOR THE DAILY MAIL 
     
At least 60 schoolgirls were groomed for sex by workers at seedy takeaways linked to the murder of a 14-year-old girl.

Children as young as 11 were targeted by mainly Asian staff at fast food outlets in Blackpool. They were offered food, alcohol and cigarettes in return for sexual favours.

An unpublicised police report produced after 14-year-old Charlene Downes vanished in 2003 found the girls, most if not all white, had been victims of the ‘honey pot’ premises. There were claims last night that the report was suppressed for reasons of political correctness.

who are both missing

Four years later another girl, 15-year-old Paige Chivers, also went missing. Detectives believe she was killed like Charlene, whose body has never been found.

Two Middle Eastern restaurant owners were acquitted over Charlene’s murder in 2007 and the crime remains unsolved.

The pair still run a kebab shop in Blackpool which was also linked to Paige, and she too was identified as a victim of sexual exploitation. Last year police reported that the takeaway was attracting young girls who were being supplied with alcohol and cocaine.

The revelations about the scale of grooming centred around the downmarket cafes comes amid growing concern at disturbing cases involving mainly Asian gangs exploiting young white girls for sex in the Midlands and North of England.

The girls, often from vulnerable homes or in the care system, were befriended by men who showered them with gifts and affection before using them for sex.

Former Home Secretary Jack Straw has said the girls were seen as ‘easy meat’, while David Cameron called on police to follow criminal acts ‘without fear or favour’ wherever the evidence leads.

The Home Office commissioned a nationwide investigation into the problem, which has long been considered taboo by police officers fearful of being branded racist.

Challenging the taboo
Indeed, a former senior detective at Lancashire Police yesterday blamed political correctness for its failure to highlight its 2003 findings in Blackpool.

But the force denied this, saying the report had been available online since 2007 but had never been intended for publication.

And why not? Was it unfair to warn young girls or their families that there lurked pedophiles and murderers in the middle of Blackpool and to stay away?

Senior officers insisted an intensive programme to break the cycle of exploitation had been a success and that in the last six months 50 of 54 grooming suspects were white.

Horror of horrors
Shocking claims made in court over Charlene’s murder revealed fears that her body had been put through a mincing machine, with takeaway staff said to have joked that her remains had ‘gone into the kebabs’.

A jury failed to reach a verdict on charges that Jordanian immigrant Iyad Albattikhi had murdered her while his Iranian landlord Mohammed Reveshi had disposed of her body.

A retrial collapsed in 2008 amid failings in the police investigation and the men were paid almost £250,000 each in compensation.

The kebab shop run by Mr Albattikhi and Mr Reveshi has changed its name from Funny Boyz to Mr Beanz. It was refused a hot food licence  last year amid fears about ‘sexual activity’ linked to the premises, but the pair blame a ‘police vendetta’ and have appealed.

Following Charlene’s disappearance in 2003, police found more than 60 girls were being groomed for sex by non-white men centred around 11 Blackpool takeaways.

They were mainly aged between 13 and 15, but some were as young as 11. Yesterday former Detective Superintendent Mick Gradwell warned that research into the problem was being hampered by ‘political correctness and concerns about upsetting community cohesion’.

'Cohesion'? Does grooming, rape, murder fit into that word somewhere?

But Lancashire police denied a cover-up. Assistant Chief Constable Andy Rhodes said his officers were making significant progress in tackling child sex exploitation across Lancashire, regardless of the background of the culprits.

He added: ‘We recognise that in some areas the number of Asian offenders is disproportionate to the population and far from ignoring this, have been tackling the issue head on by working with the local communities, giving presentations to community forums and visiting mosques to raise awareness.’

So, you are warning the criminals although you seem to have failed to warn the victims and potential victims. Politically correct madness!

It was reported yesterday that while most British sex offenders are lone white men, details of court cases in 13 towns showed that out of 56 men convicted of multiple offences of grooming girls for sex, 50 were Muslim, mostly of Pakistani heritage.





Man at centre of Nobel Literature scandal
loses rape appeal

David Keyton and Jan M. Olsen, The Associated Press 

STOCKHOLM -- The man with ties to the Swedish Academy that awards the Nobel Prize in literature lost his appeal Monday to have his rape conviction and a two-year prison sentence reversed and instead was convicted of a second rape.


The Svea Court of Appeal on Monday gave Jean-Claude Arnault 2 1/2 years in jail for raping the same woman twice seven years ago.

In October, the 72-year-old Frenchman, who is married to a former member of the Swedish Academy board, was found guilty of one rape in 2011 and sentenced him to two years. He was acquitted of a second rape because the victim said she was asleep at the time and the lower Stockholm District Court said her account wasn't reliable.

But the appeals court made "a different assessment," saying it was "beyond any reasonable doubt that the accused was guilty of rape" in the second case.

The woman's deposition "gave a credible impression," adding that her account "was strongly supported by those of several witnesses," and found them "reliable and sufficient" for a conviction. The court also said it had taken into consideration Arnault's age and "the unusually long time from the offence committed to the prosecution."

In Sweden, rape is punishable by a minimum of two years and a maximum of six years in prison.

Arnault's lawyer, Bjorn Hurtig, said the Frenchman was "seriously stunned, stupefied and saddened," and they would appeal to Sweden's Supreme Court.

Elisabeth Massi Fritz, the lawyer for the unnamed victim, told Swedish broadcaster SVT that her client was "extremely grateful and relieved." Prosecutor Christina Voigt called the sentence "a reasonable penalty."

The sex abuse scandal led eight Swedish Academy members to either leave or disassociate themselves from the secretive body's 18-member board. Amid the chaos and reputational risk, this year's Nobel literature award was postponed to 2019.

The charges against Arnault, the husband of poet Katarina Frostenson, have rocked the prestigious body and prompted Frostenson to leave it. He is also suspected of leaking the name of Nobel Prize literature winners -- allegedly seven times, starting in 1996.

The Nobel Foundation warned the academy that if it doesn't resolve its tarnished image, it could decide that another group would be a better Nobel host.

Earlier this month, the body said five Swedish Academy members and five outsiders -- two authors, two critics and one translator -- will pick two Nobel literature winners next year, the 2019 winner and the delayed 2018 winner. They will also later choose the 2020 Nobel winner. All are Swedes.

In 2017, 18 women came forward in a Swedish newspaper with abuse accusations against Arnault. An academy investigation found in April that "unacceptable behaviour in the form of unwanted intimacy" had taken place in the ranks of the prestigious institution.

The academy's former permanent secretary, Sara Danius, quit in April at the same time as Frostenson, leading observers to wonder why some of Sweden's most accomplished women appeared to be the taking the fall for a man's alleged misconduct.

A fierce internal debate over how to face up to the academy's flaws divided its members into hostile camps.

After the sex abuse allegations surfaced, the academy's annual funding to Arnault's cultural centre was immediately halted, and the body stressed it had not been paid to Arnault personally.




Judge overturns former Australian archbishop's
conviction for covering up abuse
By Danielle Haynes

UPI -- A judge in Australia overturned the conviction of former Catholic Archbishop Philip Wilson for concealing child sexual abuse Thursday, saying there were reasonable doubts about how much he knew.

The ruling from Judge Roy Ellis in Newcastle District Court in New South Wales means Wilson was released from home detention, to which he was sentenced in May.

Wilson, 68, resigned in July as archbishop of Adelaide after the conviction for failing to report decades-old child abuse allegations against former priest James Fletcher during the 1970s. Fletcher was convicted in 2004 of abusing nine children and died in prison.

Magistrate Robert Stone said Wilson failed to act because "he wanted to protect the church and its image."

Wilson began his term as archbishop in 2001, replacing Leonard Faulkner. Prior to that, Wilson was bishop of Wollongong for five years and served as president of the Australian Catholic Bishops Conference from 2006 to 2010.

Wilson repeatedly denied the charges against him and Ellis said the former archbishop had been consistent in his testimony. The judge said he considered whether Wilson had taken the "reasonable position of having an open mind about the allegations, so that he would not have reported them to police until he had a strong belief they were true."

And, of course, if he had done the responsible thing and actually investigated the paedophile priest, he would have known years before it came out, and perhaps even saved a few children from the devastation of being sexually molested by a priest. Apparently, in Judge Ellis' court, burying your head in the sand is a reasonable defence.




Women's advocacy group alarmed by results
of British rape survey
By Nicholas Sakelaris

UPI -- A new British survey has revealed perhaps some unexpected opinions, from both men and women, when it comes to rape.

The survey by End Violence Against Women asked a number of questions to British men and women about what does and does not constitute rape.

The poll shows that while awareness of rape has increased since the #MeToo movement started last year, there are serious misunderstandings of what's considered rape in society and in the court system. More than a fifth of British women, for example, said if a woman flirts on a date and then cedes to a man's wishes for sex, without consent, it's not rape.

"There is a crisis in the way the justice system deals with rape and sexual violence," End Violence Against Women said in its survey. "Despite increasing numbers of women reporting rape to the police, the rates of people charged with and convicted of rape are falling. There have been some recent investigations revealing worrying findings about juries' reluctance to convict some defendants of rape."

The group surveyed 4,000 people in Britain for the poll.

Other findings include:

- A third of respondents say it's not rape if a woman is pressured into sex but there's no physical violence.

- A third of men and 21 percent of women think if a woman flirts on a date, it's not rape.

- About 1 in 10 are unsure or think it's typically not rape to have sex with a woman who is asleep or too drunk to consent.

- Removing a condom without the partner's consent is not understood as rape. Nineteen percent said it's never rape and 21 percent said it's not normally considered rape.

- 24 percent said in most cases, sex without consent between two married partners is not rape.

The group said the results raise concern about people with similar ideas serving on a jury in a rape or sex assault case.

"This could explain why it's hard for juries to make fair decisions if they don't understand or agree with our laws on rape," EVAW co-director Rachel Krys told BBC News.

The number of defendants charged with rape fell 23.1 percent in Britain and Wales in between 2017 and 2018.

It would have been interesting to have included some racial and religious demographics in the survey.




Prosecutors resume investigation into
South Korea actress' suicide
By Elizabeth Shim

UPI -- South Korea prosecutors have summoned one of the defendants in the 2009 suicide case of Jang Ja-yeon, a rising South Korean actress who left behind a seven-page letter naming powerful and influential men who sexually assaulted her as she sought to advance her career in the country's cutthroat entertainment industry.

Bang Yong-hoon, the chief executive of Koreana Hotel in Seoul, was confirmed to have met with Jang in 2008 at an evening gathering, but he was not investigated after her suicide.

Local television network MBC reported Wednesday that Bang is the younger brother of Bang Sang-hoon, the chief executive of Chosun Ilbo, one of South Korea's most conservative newspapers.

The younger Bang, who was cross-examined for more than three hours on Wednesday, met with Jang in 2008 along with Kwon Jae-jin, a former minister of justice who was with the Prosecutors' Office at the time.

The Korea Herald reported Tuesday that investigators are looking into whether Kwon exercised his power to intervene in the initial investigation in Jang's case.

In her 2009 note, Jang said she was forced to "entertain" powerful men, including "chief executive Bang of Chosun Ilbo."

Since then, sources in the entertainment industry have said the label refers not to Bang Sang-hoon, but to his younger brother.

Jang's note stated she was forced to have sex with at least 30 powerful men in government, the media and entertainment. One of the people she was obligated to meet may have been the younger Bang.

South Korean prosecutors are also seeking to cross-examine Lim Woo-jae, a former executive at Samsung Electronics, but he declined to respond to their requests, according to MBC.

So much corruption in South Korea! It's incredible!




French police find 776 pornographic photos on
Islamic scholar Tariq Ramadan’s laptops

Al Arabiya 

In the latest scandal to hit Islamic scholar Tariq Ramadan, 776 pornographic photos – including some purportedly of the women currently suing him on sexual and rape allegations – were found on his laptops.

Ramadan, the grandson of the founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, is currently under conditional release from prison in France.

No fear of him running, apparently; he would hardly want to live in an Islamic country.

Ramadam has been charged with rape in France

A new report by French newspaper “Le Journal du Dimanche” has surfaced saying that police, following a thorough examination and analysis of Ramadan's electronic data, collected 776 pornographic and sexual photos.

Last Tuesday, a confidential report disclosed by a French-speaking Swiss private radio confirmed sexual abuse allegations against Ramadan during his time as a former teacher in Switzerland.

An investigation, commissioned by the government of Geneva to look into abuse in schools, focused mainly on the college des Coudriers and the college of Saussure where Ramadan taught French between 1984 and 2004.




Sydney's northern beaches students seek compensation for alleged sexual abuse at school

By Pallavi Singhal, Sydney Morning Herald

Former students who claim to have been sexually abused by teachers in public high schools on Sydney's northern beaches will seek compensation from the NSW government, the high-profile law firm representing them has confirmed.

Multiple allegations of sexual abuse are currently being investigated by NSW police, with assistance from the NSW Department of Education.

Danielle De Paoli, a lawyer at Maurice Blackburn, confirmed that a number of the alleged victims are also seeking financial compensation.

"We have received instructions in several matters arising from historical abuse in high schools on Sydney's northern beaches," Ms De Paoli said. "We have been corresponding with the NSW Department of Education on behalf of claimants and are now awaiting a response prior to filing any formal claims in court."

A spokeswoman for the Education Department said it is working with police to investigate all claims.

"The Department is providing every assistance to the NSW Police Force to ensure every survivor of the past is heard," the spokeswoman said. "As a matter of practice, the department does not comment on legal matters that may be currently active."

Alleged historical abuses in NSW schools have received new attention following the arrest of former Cromer High School teacher Chris Dawson this week for the alleged murder of his wife Lynette Dawson, who disappeared in 1982.

Mr Dawson began an affair with his 16-year-old student Joanne Curtis two years before Ms Dawson's disappearance, in a case that has been brought back under the spotlight by the popular podcast Teacher's Pet.

Mr Dawson is not being investigated for alleged sexual abuse.

However, Jane Muir, now 53, who was school captain at Cromer High in 1983, described a culture of relationships between students and teachers. "It was a culture where teachers and the students mixed quite readily...there was a lot of underage drinking and we saw them at parties," Ms Muir told The Saturday Telegraph.

"I was grabbed by a male teacher I was babysitting for, he tried to kiss me."

A former Cromer High School art teacher, Peter Wayne Scott, was recently convicted of 13 child sex offences committed between 1984 and 1986.

Scott drugged and then molested and assaulted several teenage boys in classrooms and storerooms during school hours and in his van after school, it was revealed during three separate trials.

Scott was sentenced to at least 7.5 years in jail.

Sexual abuse case: Mumbai Court directs boy’s family to repay compensation with 10% interest

The child’s family was given Rs 1 lakh (about $1400 USD) on July 21, 2017, under Manodhairya, the Maharashtra government’s scheme for victims of child sexual abuse, rape and acid attacks.

Written by Sadaf Modak | Mumbai | The Indian Express

A SPECIAL court in Mumbai has directed the family members of a seven-year-old boy to repay the compensation given to him in a child sexual abuse case, along with 10 per cent interest, as part of a government scheme, as they had turned hostile in court.

The 38-year-old accused, the boy’s father’s brother, was acquitted by the court last month. The child’s family was given Rs 1 lakh as compensation on July 21, 2017, under Manodhairya, the Maharashtra government’s scheme for victims of child sexual abuse, rape and acid attacks.

“The informant (victim’s mother) is to repay the compensation amount to the state by depositing it in the bank account… within two months, with interest at the rate of 10 per annum from the date of withdrawal. If the informant fails to pay the amount with the interest within two months, the state will recover it by taking legal steps,” the special court said. The revised Government Resolution of December 2017 has included provisions for recovery of compensation sum from the victims if they turn “deliberately hostile” before the court. The guidelines based on the GR state that the recovery of the amount can be made under the Maharashtra Land Revenue Code. Under it, the recovery can be made from victims or their guardians, if the victims are minor, through attachment of property, seizure or even arrest.

In this case, a complaint was filed in January 2015, by the boy’s mother, who stayed in a joint family, along with the accused. In the complaint, the child’s mother had claimed that she had seen the boy with the accused and thereafter, she began keeping a watch.

On January 11, 2015, the boy’s parents claimed that the child had gone to the accused person and when he returned, he was crying. The parents asked him what had happened. They told the police that the boy told them that the accused forced him into oral sex, at least on four occasions.

The parents then confronted the accused and he sought their forgiveness and promised that he would never repeat the act. The parents said they did not report the incident as the matter was within the family.

In February, 2015, the boy’s parents saw the accused calling the victim by certain gestures. They then filed a complaint.

During the trial, led by Special Public Prosecutor Geeta Sharma, however, the boy and his father, who deposed as witnesses, turned hostile. While the victim told the court that he did not remember any such incident, his father denied that a complaint had been filed with the police. The court acquitted the accused due to lack of evidence under all sections, including Section 377 of the Indian Penal Code, and Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act.

Earlier, while deciding on the bail plea of the accused in 2015, the accused’s advocate had produced a copy of a notice issued by the accused person’s widowed mother to his brother (the seven-year-old child’s father), which referred to a dispute in the family over her maintenance. The advocate had claimed that the notice was sent before the complaint was filed and claimed that it raised doubts about the FIR. The court, agreeing with the submission, granted bail to the accused.

Due to poverty and shame, a lot of Indian parents refuse to proceed with charges against family members and pressure the child victim(s) to recant their testimony. There is really not much the courts can do but to recover the compensation paid to the family with interest. 

Unfortunately, the uncle, it appears, was allowed to remain in the family home leading up to the trial. There needs to be a way of separating the victims from their attackers. It's absurd that this is allowed to happen.




Four Kingston, ON men arrested for child pornography as part of provincial strategy 
Tori Stafford, Kingstonist

The uptick in child pornography related arrests locally of late has actually been part of a much larger Provincial Strategy, which has led to 551 charges in November of 2018 (3rd story on link) alone.

The Ontario Provincial Police (OPP), along with 26 police agencies from across the province, gathered for a press conference in Vaughn, Ont. on Thursday, Dec. 6, 2018 to announce the results of investigations by Internet Child Exploitation Investigators, who work in partnership with local police agencies around the province. The OPP called the press conference a “snapshot of over a month’s worth of work” by those investigators, which is work done as part of the Provincial Strategy to Protect Children from Sexual Abuse and Exploitation on the Internet.

Through the month of November, 267 judicial authorizations to identify internet users suspected of being involved with child pornography and/or abuse were obtained as a result of the Provincial Strategy. Those authorizations resulted in a total of 551 charges against 122 people, including 11 youths who cannot be identifies under the terms of the Youth Criminal Justice Act.

Charges laid include:

Sexual assault
Sexual interference (of a minor)
Invitation to sexual touching
Possession of child pornography
Making child pornography available
Distribution of child pornography
Making child pornography
Accessing child pornography
Luring
Making sexually explicit material available to a child


Here in Kingston, the Provincial Strategy led to four arrests in the month of November. Charged are:

Robert J Burns, 43

possession of child pornography
11 counts of agreement or arrangement of a sexual offence against a child
luring a person under 16
two counts of failure to comply with Sex Offender Information Registration Act (SOIRA) conditions
Making child pornography
Two counts of attempted making of child pornography


David P. Malcolm, 31

Possession of child pornography
Accessing child pornography
Making child pornography available


Jody A. MacDonald, 50

Possession of child pornography
Accessing child pornography

The identity of one local male is being withheld at the request of police.

Which is often a sign that it was a family member involved, i.e. a case of incest is likely.

Across the province, 55 victims were identified during the investigations, OPP said in a press release. Those victims were referred to appropriate community-based resources for assistance. Additionally, police seized 17 firearms, three of which were loaded handguns.

During the press conference, police displayed a video showing 843 unique IP addresses. Those addresses were associated with either possession of child sex abuse material, making child sex abuse material available, or were present on a suspected child pornography website. These IP address were observed in November of this year alone, and are “the tip of the iceberg” in relation to online child sexual exploitation in Ontario, police said.

“It is our fundamental and moral responsibility to ensure every child grows up safe. On behalf of the OPP, I want to make this message very clear: We will not stand for anyone hurting our kids. We will do everything we can to reduce the threat child predators pose to our children,” said Rick Barnum, Deputy Commissioner of the OPP Investigation and Support Bureau.

Since its inception in August of 2006, the Provincial Strategy to Protect Children from Sexual Abuse and Exploitation on the Internet has completed 50,403 investigations, according to the OPP. From those investigations, 20,901 charges were laid against 5,686 people. During those 12 years, 2,009 child victims have been identified in Ontario and elsewhere.

“Perpetrators of online sexual exploitation often minimize their actions by saying they were ‘just looking,’” expressed Staff Sgt. Sharon Hanlon, coordinator of the Provincial Strategy to Protect Children from Sexual Abuse and Exploitation on the Internet.

“Let me be clear: Anyone who possesses, distributes, accesses or otherwise supports the supply and demand chain for child sexual abuse images are complicit in the sexual exploitation of children.”

Well done you guys. God bless you.
