Rotherham sex-abuse nightmare grows worse: 300 suspects — at least

The sex-trafficking ring in Rotherham may well be the worst in the West ever, or so one would hope. British officials have now identified at least three hundred suspects in a crime syndicate that raped and trafficked underage British girls for years, while local police ignored signs and clues for years:

At least 300 possible suspects have been identified by investigators probing the Rotherham child sex exploitation scandal.

The National Crime Agency (NCA) said most of the potential suspects were Asian men, while the vast majority of victims were young British girls.

The NCA launched a major investigation into the scandal after a damning report by Professor Alex Jay last year, revealed that as many as 1,400 children had been raped, trafficked and groomed by mainly Asian gangs in the South Yorkshire town between 1997 and 2013. “Asian” in this context refers to South Asia, primarily Pakistanis. That partly explains why the organizers of this trafficking ring successfully evaded detection and intervention for so long — longer than some of its later victims had been alive, in fact. Political correctness kept police from aggressively following up on evidence, and in fact pushed them to punish those who wanted to stop the abuse — including the parents of some victims, as The Telegraph reported last year:

Arabic would be more accurate

Nope.

Pakistan and its people are predominantly Indo-Iranian both ethnically and linguistically.

The only major trait Arabs and the Pakis have in common is Islam and even that they differ.

And?. The woman was spouting racial hatred in a public place. Hundreds of miles away from these appalling crimes.

Different cases, odd argument that we should let people get away with minor crimes because somewhere else people get away with bigger ones.

The term Asian as used in UK isn’t appropriate for Arabic. They aren’t Arabs and very few of them speak the Arabic language.

It is also broader than Pakistani and also includes Indians of all religions, including Hindus, Sikhs, etc.

It is of course inaccurate when both we and the Brits use it. It never includes Arabs, Turks, Persians and other groups that are indisputably from Asia.
