Police agreed to shield child sex case bishop

Jonathan Corke and James Gillespie Published: 10 January 2016

Peter Ball with Prince Charles; after a police caution, Ball lived in a cottage on the prince’s estate

FULL details of a deal agreed by police and the Church of England to caution a paedophile cleric rather than charge him are revealed today in a dossier obtained by The Sunday Times.

The 29-page report details the conclusions of two detectives who investigated Peter Ball, then Bishop of Gloucester, in 1992-3 over allegations of sex abuse. Ball received a police caution at the time and was brought to court only last October, when he admitted the abuse of 18 young men between 1977 and 1992. He was given a 32-month prison sentence.

One of his victims, Neil Todd, killed himself in 2012.

The report, which was obtained under the Freedom of Information Act, reveals that:

Detective tipped off one of Rotherham grooming gang, court hears

Complainant tells trial Basharat Hussain was a drug dealer and used to meet officer in car park and pay for information about potential arrest

http://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2016/jan/12/detective-tipped-off-one-of-rotherham-grooming-gang-court-hears-arrest#img-1'>

A corrupt detective tipped off one of the Rotherham grooming gang about potential arrests, a court has heard. One of the 12 complainants involved in the grooming trial at Sheffield crown court said her abuser was a drug dealer who used to stash about £40,000 in shoeboxes in his car.

The woman, now 30, said Basharat Hussain, one of the seven defendants in the trial, used to meet the officer in a supermarket car park for tipoffs, including inside information about attempts to arrest him. She said she also believed that the officer passed on information to Hussain about a safe house she was planning to move to in order to escape his physical abuse.

“He [Hussain] said he’d always got somebody in CID to tell him these sorts of things and he used to pay this person in CID money … He’d always tell him when he were going to get busted.”

Referring to the detective, she said: “I met this person from about being 16 to 18 years old at Aldi car park. He would never get in the car with me and Bash. Bash used to get in his car.”

The woman, known as Girl L, said Hussain carried about £40,000 in shoeboxes in his car and kept about £80,000 in the room of another teenage girl he was said to be abusing. “He was making so much profit from drugs,” she said. She said on another occasion, she had seen about £100,000 in cash in a flat Hussain lived in – money she said he told her he had made from selling cars.

The prosecution says that Girl L was subjected to years of mental and physical cruelty, that she was assaulted regularly and lived in fear that she or her brother would be seriously harmed or killed. Hussain denies all 15 charges against him, four of which are related to Girl L and which include indecent assault, threatening to kill her brother, and assault causing actual bodily harm.

In video interviews played to the jury, the woman said a potential move to a safe house for her family fell through after Hussain phoned her with details about her conversations with police. “Bash phoned me and told me this is what was happening and he actually told me where I were going,” she said, adding that she “obviously” could no longer move there.

The woman said Hussain had threatened to burn down her brother’s house and had sent her text messages saying he was going to shoot her when she attempted to stop their contact. She said Hussain had gone on the run to Pakistan when he was wanted by the police and he had attempted to persuade her to go with him.

The trial continues.

A detective was recorded warning the victim of an alleged serial child abuser that police officers who knew what had happened would not give evidence.

Ex-Luton policeman Mohammad Arshad appears in court accused of grooming underage girls for sex

By LutonOnSunday | Posted: February 09, 2016

Mohammad Arshad gave a prepared statement saying he thought the girls were aged 16 or over

Comments (0)

A LUTON policeman with an obsessive interest in teenage girls 'trawled' Facebook for young victims to have sex with, a jury heard today (February 9).

Mohammad Arshad, 35, groomed numerous underage girls over the Internet, cruised around Luton with them in his black Mercedes and persuaded to have sexual activity with him, it was alleged.

He persistently pestered them for sex and raped one 14-year-old on the back seat of his car, St Albans Crown Court was told.

Arshad, who called himself Waz, is said to have contacted schoolgirls over Facebook, Blackberry Messenger, WhatsApp or mobile phones and texts.

Prosecutor James Newton-Price told a jury of 6 men and 6 women: "He flattered girls and complimented them and sent sexually suggestive messages.

"Some of the girls liked the attention and may have been flattered, but if they are under 16 it doesn't matter.

"Most refused his sexual advances. Some thought it was a joke.

"He persistently pestered girls for sex or some sort of touching or groping."

Mr Newton-Price said the youngest of the girls was 13, nearly 14.

Arshad sent her a picture of his <banned word filter activated>.

Another 14-year-old, who was allegedly raped in the back of his car, had never had sex before.

He said the girls were very impressionable and at a vulnerable age.

It was also alleged that Arshad paid one 16-year-old girl for sex - something that is illegal as she was aged under 18.

The prosecutor said the police officer would have known they were under age, as most were still at secondary school.

It would have been obvious they'd have been under 16 or there would have been a high risk of it, he said.

The prosecutor went on: "He was more aware of the letter of the law than most people because he had a responsible position in the community.

"At the time he was seeking sexual contact with under age teenage girls, he was also a Police Constable with Bedfordshire police."

Mr Newton-Price said Arshad applied to join the force in 2013 and was interviewed in April 2014, becoming a probationer.

"He didn't last long because these matters came to the attention of other police officers by October 2014.

"He was suspended from duty," said the prosecutor.

A Bedfordshire Police spokesman said: "Arshad was suspended in October 2014 and has since left Bedfordshire Police."

The court was told that when his home was searched, images of teenage girls were found on his Blackberry phone.

188 more images of teenage girls were also on his computers.

"We say the images are clear evidence of an obsessive interest in teenage girls," said Mr Newton-Price.

He told the jury of 6 men and 6 women that Arshad contacted and arranged to meet numerous teenage girls.

12 of the 13 girls were aged under 16 and too young to consent to sexual activity with an adult.

Arshad, of Ferndale Road, Luton, denies 22 charges.

11 are causing a child to engage in sexual activity, 3 of sexual activity with a child, 4 of meeting a child following sexual grooming, one of rape, supplying cannabis, causing a child to watch a sexual act and paying for the sexual services of a child.

The charges relate to 13 alleged victims who were aged between 13 and 16 at the time.

The charges cover a period between October 2012 until December 2014.

When questioned by the police, he gave a prepared statement saying he thought the girls were aged 16 or over.

The trial is expected to last three weeks

Rotherham abuse scandal: Police corruption probe after allegations of collusion between officers and offenders

Chris Burn

A major investigation into allegations of police corruption relating to the Rotherham child abuse scandal is under way after a two-month trial highlighted apparent collusion between officers and offenders.

During the course of the trial at Sheffield Crown Court, allegations were made that South Yorkshire Police officers had passed information and drugs to a Rotherham child grooming ring and acted to protect serial child abusers Arshid and Basharat Hussain from prosecution.
