The author of a major report on child rape grooming gangs in England has warned that many are still in denial about the role that ethnicity and religion play in the ongoing mass sexual exploitation of mostly young white working-class girls by predominantly Pakistani Muslim men. She has also expressed disappointment that little has changed since she first became involved in the issue, when she led an investigation into the Labour-majority council in the grooming hotspot of Rotherham in 2015.
The author of a major report on child rape grooming gangs in England has warned that many are still in denial about the role that ethnicity and religion play in the ongoing mass sexual exploitation of mostly young white working-class girls by predominantly Pakistani Muslim men.
While stating the fact that Pakistani Muslims are significantly overrepresented in the group sexual exploitation of young girls in Britain was once cast as akin to a conspiracy theory, a review last year from Baroness Louise Case forced the left-wing Labour Party government to not only launch a national review but also to acknowledge the issue. However, speaking at the Hay Festival in Wales on Sunday, Dame Casey said that little has improved since she first became involved in the issue, when she led an investigation into the Labour-majority council in the grooming hotspot of Rotherham in 2015, and that political correctness still stands in the way of justice and protecting further victims.
"I was very disappointed, to put it mildly, I was really upset that in the intermediate 10 years (since Rotherham), not enough had changed," she said. "Victims still weren’t believed, people didn’t gather the right evidence, everybody was still squeamish over looking at both religion and ethnicity of perpetrators. " "I felt there was a sense of denial and I felt possibly, personally, that I had let those victims down... That is never, ever going to happen again.
