“Pakistani ‘’ Grooming gangs :The truth (A thread: 🧵) .
Lets talk about the infamous Pakistani grooming gangs and why they are being called the Pakistani groomers and what average Pakistanis and what are the honest reactions and opinions of British Pakistani regarding this situation?
Who are groomers ? They are a organized groups exploiting vulnerable children and individuals for systemic sexual abuse.
The term became popular in linked to heinous crimes in Rotherham, Rochdale, Telford , and beyond.
1/
Definition: “Grooming gangs are not your average perpetrators of sexual violence.”
These are networks of individuals who lure, manipulate, and abuse victims in a calculated manner mosty young girls are their victims.
Their crimes aren’t impulsive they’re premeditated and systemic.
2/
Modus Operandi:
These gangs employ deceit. Men often pose as boyfriends to gain victims’ trust.
They shower young girls with attention and gifts, isolating them from family.
Once trust is established, they drug, rape, and traffic them to other towns and other people .
In the below video the interviewer is interviewing a convicted criminal/groomer.
3/
The victims were Overwhelmingly poor, white, working-class girls often already vulnerable due to neglect or abusive home environments.
The three factor combined , Isolated, voiceless, and trapped, they become easy prey for predators who exploit every opportunity.
Between 1997 and 2013, an estimated 1,400 children were abused in Rotherham alone (Jay Report).
Most perpetrators were described as of Pakistani origin.
4/
The abuse wasn’t subtle victims were raped in cars, parks, and hotel rooms.
Some were branded with initials to signify ownership, others threatened with death if they spoke out , kept a 15 year old girl in a cage like a dog, while using her as a sex slave.
The teenage girl, Victoria Agoglia, who was abused by the Rochdale grooming gang, was r*ped before being killed by a lethal heroine injection that was injected into her by a 50 year old man.
The same gang also kept the aborted fetus of another teenage girl as a souvenir, storing it in a freezer.
5/
In September 2003 the 15 year old girl visited the home of a 50-year-old Pakistani Muslim man - Mohammed Yaqoob - who injected her with heroin.
She died in hospital five days later.
He was later jailed for three and half years for injecting her with a noxious substance after being cleared of manslaughter.
The girl was one of hundreds of teens, some as young as 11, that were groomed, trafficked and abused by gangs between 2004-2012 in the Greater Manchester area.
Shabir Ahmed, one of the ringleaders of the Rochdale child grooming gang who forced his victims to call him 'Daddy' was jailed for a total of 41 years for multiple r*pes and sexual offences against children.

Think of your sister, daughter, or granddaughter as a child. Picture them.
Lucy Lowe was 14.
Vicky Round was 12.
Becky Watson was 11.
Charlene Downes was 11 or 12.
Sammy Woodhouse was 14.
Victoria Agoglia was 13.
Sarah Wilson was 11.
And there are countless more.
children barely out of primary school, young and in no way responsible for the atrocities committed against them.
When girls attempted to end the abuse, the men would remind them of what happened to Lucy Lowe, a grooming gang victim who was burned alive by her abuser, along with her family in a deliberate house fire Lucy had a child with her abuser when she was only 14-years-old.
7/
The groomers plied them with alcohol and drugs, they raped them in graveyards, they put them into the back of taxis and drove them to be gang-raped by 20+ of their friends, they dismembered them and sold them as kebab meat.
They inserted a pump into their anal cavity and had multiple men sodomise them at once, they raped them on filthy mattresses above takeaway shops, they forced panties down their throat to muffle the screams, they threatened to murder them if they told anyone.
They brutally beat them, they killed them and torched their houses with their family inside,
they picked them up from local authority care homes to be raped, they forced them to take crack cocaine and heroin,
they convinced them they loved them so they could abuse them, they killed their unborn children,
they targeted the most vulnerable and marginalised, they told them no one would believe them, they forced them to get abortions, they passed them round like a piece of meat,
they threatened to kill their families, they gaslit and manipulated them. 💔
Watch the interview of a survivor.
8/
They branded them “white slags”, “child prostitutes”, and “shaggers”. They walked in on victims naked and drugged with 20+ adult men and only arrested the child, they arrested girls for prostitution and handed them back to the same men that were exploiting them.
They added the victims to dockets as co-defendants in their own abuse, they downplayed the scale of abuse, they refused to investigate reports, they paid for the taxi rides the girls got raped during, they silenced .
they blamed the girls for their own abuse, they tried to block inquiries, and more.
Imagine all of this happened to your sister. Or your daughter.
Now think again about how young they were, how vulnerable, how innocent.
And understand the true horror of child sexual exploitation and the depravity of grooming gangs.
10/
Now the question is “Why didn’t authorities act? “
Local councils and police feared accusations of racism.
The majority of offenders in these cases were of Pakistani, indian ,a afghani bengali , making the issue politically sensitive.
Political correctness overrode justice.
11/
Social workers and whistleblowers tried raising the alarm, but they were ignored or silenced.
Files went missing. Victims were labeled as “problematic” or even “consenting.” Imagine being a 13-year-old victim and being told it was your fault.
12/
Now, let’s address the contentious term: “Muslim grooming gangs.” Why are they called this? Critics argue it’s unfair to attach religion to these crimes, while others emphasize that religious ideology plays a role in the mindset of many perpetrators.
Here’s the nuance: Rape is not inherently tied to any religion. It’s a heinous crime committed across every community.
But when a perpetrator specifically targets non-Muslim girls because they believe them to be “impure” or “fair game,” that’s ideological.
12/
In these cases, many perpetrators seem influenced by Islamist extremist ideologies. The belief that non-Muslim girls are “lesser” or “conquerable” is not cultural it’s rooted in a religiopolitical mindset that seeks to justify heinous acts in the name of supremacy.
So, yes, there’s nothing wrong with identifying these networks as Muslim grooming gangs.
It’s not an indictment of an entire faith, but a recognition that ideology motivated these crimes. Ignoring this is a disservice to the victims and to justice.
13/
This isn’t limited to the UK either.
Similar patterns have emerged in other European countries.
The scale and systematic nature of these crimes suggest that it’s not just a localized issue but part of a much larger problem tied to extremist ideologies.
Muslims who feel defensive about this term need to self-reflect and engage in community conversations.
Ask tough questions: Why do these individuals believe such ideologies? What steps can we take to counter them? Silence isn’t an option anymore.

UAE placed 19 individuals and entities on its Local Terrorist List for terrorist organization Muslim Brotherhood affiliation.
EIGHT of the entities are based in the United Kingdom.
The UAE is sanctioning entities in the UK, let that sink in. 15/
Everyone of those Pakistani, Afghani and Bangladeshi men should be deported, and blacklisted - along with all their contact list thoroughly investigated and if any found receive the same treatment or should be given a death penalty.
Most of these people are on asylum or illegal immigrants . They have abandoned pakistan ,and refused to intergerate into western culture . They have their one leg in Pakistan and one in uk and causinh chaos in both .
There should be a new taskforce established, a better one, with powers to take immediate action and resolve this epidemic of these monsters.
15/
Non-Muslims should stop mollycoddling Muslims over this issue. Political correctness doesn’t help victims.
Naming the problem and addressing its ideological roots is the only way forward.
And no, this isn’t about painting an entire community with the same brush. Many Muslims are horrified by these crimes.
But deflection or denial only enables perpetrators and gives extremists a free pass to continue their exploitation.
16/
In some cases, the offenders held deep-rooted misogyny, seeing women (especially non-Muslim women) as objects.
This toxic mix of cultural and ideological supremacy must be confronted head-on.
In Pakistan such events never happened because it was never allowed . 17/
Pakistanis make up just 2% of the UK population, yet:
- 6% of British doctors are Pakistani.
- 8% of junior doctors and nurses are Pakistani.
20% of small & medium enterprises (SMEs) are owned by South Asians, many Pakistani-led.
The British Pakistani community contributes £1+ billion annually to the UK economy.
Proportional to their population, 2% of all sexual violence in the U.K. is carried out by Pakistanis. Jail them.
Hang them. Do whatever with them, as long as it is consistently applied to all offenders of all backgrounds.
18/
We disown this trash. And we will not be known by them.
The grooming gang from a decade ago represents all 2 Billion Muslims and everyone than the rapes in churches? represents Christianity.
The widely circulated claim that "80% of grooming cases are Asians" is based on just 120 cases over 12 years.
18/
Tommy Robinson is not in prison for ANYTHING to do with a grooming gang.
He is in prison for defaming a CHILD victim of abuse.
He was ordered by the court NOT to do it again.
He then did it TEN TIMES.
He had 10 chances. He broke the court order. He broke the law.
All of Tommy Robinson’s friends are pedøphiIes.
19/
So, what’s the takeaway? This is a multilayered problem ideological, cultural, and systemic.
It demands accountability from communities, law enforcement, and policymakers.
Protecting vulnerable children must override all fears of political backlash.
The victims of these grooming gangs deserve justice.
They were failed by their families, communities, and systems.
Their stories must be heard, their pain acknowledged, and their abusers brought to justice without exceptions.

In March 2000, a secret deal was cut. It was arranged between a child rapist and police officers.
An abused girl was handed over to the police by her abuser. In return, he was allowed to go free.
Jahanghir Akhtar, who later became deputy head of the council, was accused of facilitating the deal. He denied it.
The abuser was his cousin, Arshid Hussain, a notorious gangster.
Foreign systems of prioritising distant family kinship over justice causing a crisis? In South Yorkshire?
Hassan Ali, the policeman who helped arrange the secret deal, was run over and killed by a car on the day he was told he was under investigation.
With his death, there was no further inquiry.

You might not see the much of them on sm because the number is very small .
Why Iran isn’t Firing back that hard yet . ( Short thread 🧵)
Some said Israel crippled Iranian missile program some said Iran is running low out of missiles.
Meanwhile Israel said it crushed Iranian missile power which isnt the case because there are missiles flying over literally every night .
Then why Iran isnt hitting that hard the same way they did at ist ? Let me break it Down for you . 1/
Israel claims it has destroyed nearly two-thirds of Iran’s ballistic missile launch capability specifically the TELs (Transporter Erector Launchers). They present this as the reason Iran is now launching fewer missiles each day.
Iranian missile launchers are almost always road mobile and often just look like container trucks.
Even with the best of intel, it’s hard to track exactly where they are at any given time. Video attached. 👇🏻
2/
But that claim doesn’t hold up under scrutiny. So far, only about 10 destroyed TELs have been visually confirmed.If Iran still has hundreds of launchers, why hasn’t it launched another massive missile wave?
The answer lies in logistics, geography, and air superiority.3/
Since Iran and Israel have locked the horns we have seen everything from flying missiles to hitting key sites and takig down high value targets. Which side is having an upper hand so far?
Here is the complete breakdown of the damage assessment on both sides with video evidence and satellite imagery. 👇🏻
Iranian Natanz Nuclear Facility.
Israeli F-35s damaged centrifuge halls, enrichment plants, and substations. Which CRIPPLES
Iran’s weapons-grade uranium production. It delays weaponization, exposes weak air defense, and triggers domestic backlash.

Isfahan Nuclear Technology Center Iran .
Destruction of uranium conversion and fuel fabrication facilities. Its going to DISRUPT fuel cycle and research. And its very Symbolic loss , pressures Iran diplomatically and internally. 3/
Tonight Entire West is going to jump on Iran . ( Short Thread ) 🧵
Iran just launched 40 missiles towards Israel. Tensions in the Middle East have exploded.
After a reported Israeli strike deep inside Tehran, it’s no longer just Israel vs. Iran it now looks like the entire West is preparing to jump into the fight. With U.S., U.K., France, and Israel all aligning militarily, tonight could mark the beginning of a full-scale regional war.
Here’s why that feels inevitable:1/
#Iran #IsraeliranWar
Open Military Escalation: Israel-Iran War Has Effectively Begun.
A strike inside Tehran and the quote from a senior Israeli intelligence official hinting at “more surprises” indicates that #Israel war posture has already shifted from covert ops to overt military conflict.
The mention of “Operation Rising Lion” shows that this is a coordinated and named campaign not a one-off strike and suggests pre-planned phases of escalation.
2/
Western Military Alignment with Israel
UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer has officially committed Royal Air Force squadrons and naval forces to support Israel a formal military alignment.
France also confirms it will deploy assets in coordination with the US and Israel another NATO power joining the front.
The U.S. is moving warships and military assets into the region a classic indicator of preparation for regional. war or preemptive strikes.3/
India’s diplomatic missions are meant to represent their nation’s values.
But behind closed doors, multiple High Commissions stand accused of rape, corruption, and exploiting immunity to evade justice.
This thread will expose 8 horrific cases the government doesn’t want you to know.
1/
Bangladesh: The Rape Case They Buried (2015) .
3 diplomats of Indian High Commission official raped a minor inside the diplomatic premises in Dhaka which was child of a maid .
A foreign mission turned into a rape den and later the official vehicles belonged to indians high commission Dhaka used to dump the body outside premises of embassy and those diplomats were sent back to India overnight.
Later investigations revealed the main character behind this incident and case was heard in courts in dhaka .
2/
The Indian invoked diplomatic immunity, leading to the official's repatriation in india and saved the criminals.
The case was reportedly referred to Indian authorities for internal investigation, though outcomes were not publicly disclosed.
The incident sparked protests in Bangladesh and criticism from human rights groups, highlighting tensions around the application of diplomatic immunity in criminal cases.
No conclusive judicial findings or verified reports of accountability were made public.
The matter was handled discreetly between the two governments, as is common in diplomatic immunity cases.
