Three Women Liberated From London House After Thirty Years of "Slavery"There are some facts here which suggest this case will be politically troublesome. First: These women were liberated October 25th. Why are we only hearing about this now? I suspect socio-political trouble is behind the delay. Second: Apparently one of the "slaves" called an organization called Freedom Charity to help her after seeing a British program about the group's efforts to save the victims of forced marriage. Third: This Mirror article is vague and short of specifics about the perpetrators. Almost as if neither the police nor media want to report politically-nettlesome facts about the kidnappers/enslavers. So my suspicion is that this case might involve Islamists. We all by now know what the media and police are usually concealing when they are cagey about a perpetrator. I'm having trouble thinking of any other reason that explains why these guys' pictures aren't on the cover of ever British tabloid with the huge "MONSTERS!" headline. I'm having trouble thinking of any other reason the cops didn't perp-walk them for the press. Three women slaves have been rescued after more than 30 years - including one who had NEVER had contact with the outside world. Obviously the police know the slavers' names. And yet I don't see mention of them. Although I once admired England, I find it extremely creepy that the State exerts such power to hide basic facts from the public, and that their control over the media is apparently sufficient that the media will observe their demand for a gag order. Update: The Mirror is updating the story on a blog-type feed as information comes out. At the 4:00 PM (UK time) update: A gang who trafficked a vulnerable young woman into the UK from Slovakia where she was treated as a "modern-day slave", beaten and repeatedly raped were jailed for a total of more than 30 years last month. Well, that's horrible. It seems to confirm my suspicions. The gang abducting these women seem to have been Slovakian. (Which doesn't exclude the possibility they are Muslim Slovakian.) Either way, it does appear that they were then sold to Islamic men. Thanks to weft-cut loop. | Recent Comments
