Muslim leader slams cops
26/ 3/2008
A MUSLIM leader has slammed police for failing to deal with Asian gangs who force young white girls into prostitution.
Mohammed Shafiq, director of the Rochdale-based Ramadhan Foundation, has claimed officers are differentiating between criminals on the basis of race. He says fears of a repeat of the Oldham race riots mean officers are `overtly sensitive' and are not clamping down on prostitution.
A question I have is who gave Mr. Shafiq the title of 'Muslim Leader'. He certainly does not represent me in any way shape or form and is not my leader.
Is this an example of lazy Journalism on your part or simply self glorification on Mr. Shafiqs part?

This problem was highlighted few years ago in the media. Mohammed Shafiq of Ramadhan Foundation, appeared to have just woken-up now to this problem. Another self publicity seeking stunt ?
