Britain's biggest Islamic authorities say child sexual abuse in Muslim communities is 'underreported' because young victims are too scared to tell anyone about it

Britain’s biggest Islamic authorities believe that child sexual abuse within the Muslim community is “underreported” because it is a “taboo subject”.

The Muslim Women’s Network (MWN) presented written testimony to the Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse (IICSA) stating that the “scale of the problem is hidden” because victims are “forced” into silence.

The inquiry also received written testimony from the Muslim Council of Britain (MCB) stating it thinks cases are “underreported… due to cultural issues and stigma”.

All religious organizations are being investigated by IICSA, which was set up by the British government in 2014 following the Jimmy Savile sex abuse scandal.

Since then, investigators have been told that one in ten cases of child sexual abuse have taken place in a religious institution. […]

Meanwhile, one of Britain’s biggest mosque and imam umbrella bodies “has not felt the need to undertake audits, inspection or risk assessments specific to child sex abuse” because “it has not received any information to suggest otherwise”.

The Mosques and Imams National Advisory Board (MINAB) told the inquiry that “sexual abuse is limited, if not rare, within the Muslim community”. …

I would think anyone in Britain who would say such a thing would be putting themselves in serious legal jeopardy.

And if the abusers are muslim, they won’t do anything about it and shame the victims.

BS I recall a case where of a member of the US military was prosecuted for attacking a man who raped a boy. The troops could hear it happening but as it was “the local custom” it was not something for us to “interfere” in.

I’m sure fear is a factor there is also a shrug about the savagery of some cultures.

U.S. soldier punished for stopping child rape by Afghan
Originally published September 22, 2015 at 9:33 am Updated September 22, 2015 at 11:42 am

The Pentagon and the (Obama) White House condemned on Monday reports that Afghan forces who worked with U.S. military personnel sexually assaulted boys, and members of Congress complained about a U.S. soldier being forced out of the military because he intervened in 2011, attacking an Afghan police commander he believed was raping a child.

Rep. Duncan Hunter, R-Calif., and others are questioning whether the U.S. military routinely discouraged troops from intervening in such sexual assaults. Hunter said Army Sgt. 1st Class Charles Martland must leave the Army by Nov. 1, because his intervention to stop a child rape triggered a negative mark on his service record...

...In its 2014 report, the State Department said that many child sexual abusers are not arrested, and “there were reports security officials and those connected to the ANP (Afghan National Police) raped children with impunity.”

...White House press secretary Josh Earnest said Monday that the U.S. works with the Afghan government to stop the exploitation of children.

Sure it’s rare-in the minds of perverted imams. They can rely on the BBC, ITV and Channel 4 to report only on abuse by Christians....

It’s funny how the Brits knock America every single day as they are now a colony,Mohammad is the number one name and their children are being buggered by Mohammads. They sit around like cucks in Socialist sh*topia.

[Uncle Miltie]

“Cultural Issues” = Mohammed was a child rapist = Every muslim must be like Mohammed

This is a country that covered up Muslim rape gangs and a quarter million victims over 30 years. All to protect the reputation of Islam. Of course they’d cover up MUSLIM rape victims.
