Hard Data, Harder Truth: Police Statistics Reveal Pakistani Patterns in Child Exploitation Cases

Grooming Gangs: The Harsh Truth No One Wants To Confront
The data is finally in.
And it confirms what victims and whistleblowers knew all along.
For years, vulnerable girls were silenced. Communities raising concerns were vilified. Whistleblowers were branded racist for daring to speak a truth many already knew. Campaigners were imprisoned for demanding justice.
Now police records from all 43 forces across England and Wales reveal a disturbing pattern: British Pakistanis are significantly overrepresented in grooming gang offences.
Let me break this down:
- Pakistani Britons make up just 2.7% of the population according to the 2021 census
- In 2023, they accounted for 6.9% of grooming offences
- By 2024, that number almost doubled to 13.7%
This isn't speculation. It's not anecdotal evidence. These are official police statistics from the Hydrant Programme, the national initiative analysing group-based child sexual abuse.
Pakistanis are up to four times more likely to be responsible for child sex grooming offences reported to police than the general population. And still, UK leadership refuses to act.
The Politics of Silence
Keir Starmer has a personal stake in this failure.
As Director of Public Prosecutions during critical years, he acknowledged "an issue of ethnicity" in these cases back in 2012 - then did nothing meaningful about it. His words were safe, vague, ultimately meaningless while the abuse continued.
Now as Prime Minister, he's rejecting growing demands for a national inquiry into grooming gangs - a demand supported by victims, campaigners, whistleblowers, and those seeking justice.
Even tech mogul Elon Musk called the government's refusal "rape genocide apologism."
Meanwhile, Jess Phillips, the current safeguarding minister, refused Oldham Council's request for a fresh inquiry. This in a town where survivors continue to come forward and cover-ups remain unresolved.
Instead, the government admits there's a "data gap" and claims they're working "at pace" to address it.
But here's the question no one's asking: Why was this "data gap" allowed to exist in the first place?
The Betrayal Runs Deep
For decades, our institutions prioritised maintaining community relations over child safety.
Both police and political leaders allowed fears of being called "racist" to override their duty to protect vulnerable girls - mostly white working-class girls exploited by networks of predominantly British-Pakistani men. Some even exchanged children for votes and protected the rape gangs in exchange for securing the bloc postal vote delivered by kingpins from the Pakistani community.
The result?
Rotherham. Rochdale. Telford. Oldham.
Each town, a monument to institutional failure. Each name, a reminder of thousands of young lives destroyed while authorities looked the other way.
To this day, the majority of survivors still haven't seen justice. Former Prime Minister Liz Truss has referenced as many as 100,000 victims.
Let that number sink in: 100,000 children.
The Numbers Don't Lie (But Politicians Do)
The Hydrant Programme revealed that in 2023 alone, 717 grooming-related offenses were reported.
In just the first nine months of 2024: 572 more.
Pakistani suspects were significantly overrepresented in these cases - the very pattern that officials denied for years.
And these figures likely underrepresent the problem, as police admit the data is incomplete. Ethnic background can only be recorded after suspects are formally interviewed, meaning many cases go uncategorised.
Even more shocking? Former Labour MP Simon Danczuk revealed party officials were warned not to mention the ethnic component of grooming gangs because it might "damage the party electorally."
Let that sink in.
Protecting political careers took priority over protecting children from rape.
When the image of a political party becomes more important than preventing child sexual exploitation, we have a national scandal of unforgivable proportions.
This Isn't About Demonising Communities
Let's be clear: this isn't about targeting an entire community.
It's about ensuring that the truth is no longer buried to protect political careers or fragile ideologies.
It's about acknowledging statistical realities so we can properly address the problem.
It's about making sure no more children suffer because adults in positions of power were too cowardly to face uncomfortable truths.
The Time for Action Is Now
The data is clear. The cover-up is exposed.
What we need is:
- A full, independent national inquiry
- Reopening of cold cases
- Investigation into institutional cover-ups
- Accountability for officials who failed victims - starting with those who oversaw failures and then blocked scrutiny
Keir Starmer was at the helm of the CPS during key years when victims were abandoned. Now he leads a government still refusing to investigate these scandals properly.
He has questions to answer - not platitudes to offer.
The question is simple: How many more victims must there be before our leaders find the courage to act?
Until there is a full reckoning, voices demanding justice will only grow louder.

For those new to me, I'm Raja Miah MBE. I spent six years leading a small team that exposed how Labour politicians protected Pakistani Rape Gangs and exchanged working class White girls for votes.
My work continues despite powerful forces including the media, politicians, police and public officials all conspiring to desperately stop me and bury the truth. Both Labour politicians and Gtr Manchester Police have all repeatedly tried and failed to have me imprisoned.
My crime? Refusing to look the other way to the gang rape of children.
