Having seen the reports of the convictions of the Rapists in Rochdale and Gwent I wonder why a rape case which took place in Manchester some 18 months back has gone unreported.
It was a Hackney Driver who was convicted and jailed for 12 years.
He used to go around the city looking for drunk girls/women and was involved in a number of incidents of rape and assault.
Why has this never been reported ?
Can one ask the council under the ''freedom of information act'' to release this information ?
I along with many other drivers know a lot about this driver so in Manchester its no secret so how do we get this info into the media etc ?
Goes without saying that he was of Pakistani origin !

Why??

Are you suggesting that only Pakistani taxi drivers rape, or are you racist?

I think that is the same sort of analogy as saying that not all muslums are terrorists but it is is sad fact that most terrorists are muslums!!

Would that include the IRA, the real IRA, the UDF, the UVF, ETA and various other organisations.

Surely the council will have had no part in the prosecution, but you can ask the council anything under the FoI Act.

What does the Percentages say? Is their a bigger percentage of the Asian or Non Asian population that commits such crimes..

Didn't the Police admit to a Bigger percentage of Asians than non Asians committing crimes such as the Sex ring using young white girls as sex slaves...? Or is it all Media hysteria that's whipping things up?

I suspect the white English is the biggest background that commit such crimes.

But that's different from implying it goes without saying about all rapes.

Those that committed those horrid crimes are all utter scum, but I couldn't give a f*** about their background/race/culture.

Would you want to bring it into the media now? I'm sure the victim/s are quite happy it's not seen the light of day in a newspaper and as a taxi driver surely you don't want that kind of person associated with your trade, surely you must see the damage this kind of news does to the taxi trade, even when it's PH driver ffs
