'Evil crimes' ... Mohammed Shafiq

THE grooming of white teenagers by predominantly Asian gangs is evil and abhorrent. Islam forbids these evil crimes.

It is not widespread and indeed white men have been convicted in these crimes too.

The solutions are simple - imams and mosques must address these issues in their Friday sermons and in all activities with young men.

They should be promoting that white teenagers are no less valuable than their own daughters or sisters.

There needs to be more dialogue with the police and authorities and a campaign advertising what happens if you are involved in this evil.
