“The men are aged between 24 to 38. The children were aged between 11 and 15 when the alleged abuse occurred.”

were? are??? how old ‘were’ the men OR how old ‘are’ the alleged victims now … when did the alleged abuse actually take place

so its at least 7 years ago … does this mean that the accused men were possibly 17 to 31 … or as the alleged abuse took place over 8 years this makes it 15 years ago when it began so the ages of the men(?) could have been between 9 and 23
ie 12, 17, 15, 17, 23, 18, 9, 12, 11 respectively

and yes, the children were yet again let down by the adults who were paid to look after them but as in previous cases there will be no blame attached to them for doing their well paid jobs so badly!

Or indeed what would be “happening in the streets” if the girls were Muslim and the men were anglo-saxons, in helicopter gunships….oh sorry, that’s over there and not over here – can’t be comparable.

Ah, two from North Africa, that let’s those from Pakistani origins off the hook then. I wonder if they are all Muslims, though.
.
Can you imagine what would be happening in the streets if the men were all of anglo-saxon heritage and the girls all under-age Muslim/Asians? I suspect there would be rioting in the streets.

I would notice that there is a striking similarity between this case and the recent one in Rochdale….?
unpleasant though it may be, surely it would be foolish to ignore a potential cultural problem in these cases?

What is the point of this article?

How the media interprets it is not of any relevance to what actually happened.
