Prosecutor reveals how one teenage girl was grilled by 11 barristers for six days and called a liar - but refused to back down and laid bare the horror of Asian rape gangs
Daily Mail (UK) ^ | NAZIR AFZAL

She told of underage girls being threatened and picked up in car parks and taken to houses across the town, where they would be passed around dozens of men.

In one case, a man in his 40s poured petrol on the head of a 14-year-old girl with learning difficulties and threatened to set her alight unless she performed a sex act on him.

In 2009, the Crown Prosecution Service had decided not to pursue the cases in court, describing the girls as ‘not credible’.

Authorities who were supposed to protect them had judged the girls promiscuous teenagers who were making lifestyle choices by engaging in sexual activity with these men.

They brought me up to speed on Operation Span, an inquiry which had been launched by Greater Manchester Police following complaints from 47 girls that they had been raped by grooming gangs in Rochdale.

I watched the footage of a 15-year-old girl being questioned by police in 2008. She was the teenager the Prosecution Service had labelled not credible and would later become known as Girl A.

The look on her face as she spoke of being raped repeatedly by a gang of men was heart-rending.

Girl A appeared via video-link from a police station and was questioned by 11 barristers over a period of six days.

When she had been questioned by the ninth barrister, she finally lost her temper – much to the lawyer’s delight.

‘Now we see the real you!’ he exclaimed.

One journalist asked: ‘So what happened in 2009? Why was no one prosecuted then?’

David Cameron, the then-Prime Minister, called me, asking how widespread a problem the grooming gangs were. I told him it was a deep-rooted issue that we simply hadn’t been paying enough attention to nationwide.

It's very sloppy journalism. If I was the EIC, this reporter is history. The below certainly seems to imply he was PM in 2009, and that's how readers will take it:

Can you deny this is misleading?

Why would I deny it? I said the article wasn't clear.

FWIW the article doesn’t put those two sentences together. The first is from the text of the article and the second is about twenty three lines below the first.

Well, I respectfully disagree. It’s more than, “not clear,” it’s misleading. Are you a Gordon Brown supporter?

This disgusting Muslim rape gang violence and police PC coverup was and has been going on widely no matter who the PM happens to be. It’s a stain upon the entire British nation and has been for years.

IMO somebody is busy picking the flyshit out of the pepper in order to discredit the entire story.

Quite the opposite. But refusing to vet the story is just a handing a victory to the other side.

The Vikings and British, in their time, were some of the most feared warriors on the planet.

Now?

Paki rape gangs are destroying the lives of thousands of British girls with the full collusion of UK police. Bottom line.

Why isn’t that mass atrocity s*** happening on this side of the pond? Could it be because we “infidels” have guns, and muzzies here just aren’t up to waging pitched battle against armed victims?

I tend to think so. So let the stinking Brits lecture us Yanks about our “lax gun laws” while they enjoy their f***ing Muslims! Screw ‘em!!!

The medical literature on Middle Eastern Consanguinity is extensive. Lots of hereditary diseases caused by inbreeding.

Your understanding of the world is about to take a leap forward once you look at this "consuanguinity map": Consanguinity is a deeply rooted social trend among one-fifth of the world population mostly residing in the Middle East, West Asia and North Africa, as well as among emigrants from these communities now residing in North America, Europe and Australia. The mounting public awareness on prevention of congenital and genetic disorders in offspring is driving an increasing number of couples contemplating marriage and reproduction in highly consanguineous communities to seek counseling on consanguinity. Primary health care providers are faced with consanguineous couples demanding answers to their questions on the anticipated health risks to their offspring. Preconception and premarital counseling on consanguinity should be part of the training of health care providers particularly in highly consanguineous populations. Keywords: Consanguinity, Consanguineous marriages, Preconception counseling, Preconception consultation, Premarital counseling, Primary health care Introduction It is estimated that one billion of the current global population live in communities with a preference for consanguineous marriage (Bittles and Black 2010a; Modell and Darr 2002). Consanguineous marriage is traditional and respected in most communities of North Africa, Middle East and West Asia, where intra-familial unions collectively account for 20–50+% of all marriages (Bittles 2011; Hamamy et al. 2011; Tadmouri et al. 2009) [Fig. 1]. Fig. 1 Fig. 1 Global consanguinity rates Primary health care providers in communities with high consanguinity rates may be confronted by situations where they are asked to provide preconception counseling to consanguineous couples. In such countries and communities where cousin marriages are customary, many young couples nowadays present to health care providers seeking a scientifically sound answer to their questions including: “Will our children be physically or mentally abnormal?” “How can we minimize the risks for having affected children?”

In the eyes of the politically-correct elite, teenage girls are bad girls at heart, while predatory invaders are “diversity”. Globalists are evil, and they endanger all decent people.

Every individual that knowingly facilitates this depraved activity should be hunted down and executed.

What is the age of consent there? It seems to me that 14 and 15 year old girls don’t make the cut. It would seem to be statutory rape. Plus a mentally disabled girl? Doesn’t seem right.

On the other hand, the liberals up here lowered it to 14, a stupid decision IMO.

OMG those poor girls. That’s what the bleeding hearts get for importing Muslims.

Wonder if they’d feel the same if it were their daughters.
