Rotherham child sex abuse: it is our duty to ask difficult questions
‘Without blaming Islam as such
(which is in itself no more misogynistic than Christianity), one can
observe that violence against women rhymes with the subordination of
women and their exclusion from public life in many Muslim countries and
communities.
The outline of what happened in Rotherham
is now more or less clear: at least 1,400 children were subjected to
brutal sexual exploitation between 1997 and 2013; children as young as
11 were raped by multiple perpetrators, abducted, trafficked to other
cities, beaten and intimidated. The perpetrators were (almost
exclusively) of Pakistani origin, and their victims were often white
schoolgirls.
