UK Sikh Leader: Political Correctness Let Grooming Gangs Prosper! – Swarajya

According to Mohan Singh, the founder of Sikh Awareness Society, the grooming gangs have been allowed to prosper in Britain because the authorities are afraid they'll be labelled racist if they speak out. Mohan Singh was participating in a Sunday morning radio talk show (see video) hosted by Katie Hopkins show on LBC, a London-based national talk and phone-in radio station.

Mohan Singh had established the Sikh Awareness Society (SAS) in 1998 over growing concerns that kids of his community were falling victim to the grooming gangs, predominantly run by Muslims of Pakistani origin.

A BBC Inside Out investigation had uncovered how British Sikh girls were being preyed upon by men who subject them to sexual abuse. In many instances the men, mostly Muslims of Pakistani origin, deceive the girls into believing they are Sikhs to gain their trust. Desperate to hide their secret, fearing it will bring ill-repute to their families, victimised girls are often forced to leave home.

Singh told host Katie: "I think it is due to political correctness, but it's also down to nobody wants to be called a racist. Nobody wants to call a spade a spade. Nobody really grabbing the bull by the horns and saying "No, abuse is abuse".

"But they don't want to be labelled that we're after one community, we're targeting one community.

"We can see all the reports coming out Rotherham, the failings of the police, the failings of the local councillors.

"The whole system failed and that's what's been happening for the last 30 years. And it is political correctness. People are just too too afraid to, you know, just too too afraid to speak the truth."

UK Sikhs group have been urging politicians not to describe the grooming gang as Asian describing the term as too vague and besmirching communities. For instance, they had pointed out that four of the six people convicted of offences including rape and assault as part of years of sexual abuse in the Yorkshire town were of Pakistani heritage.
