    One question at this stage - having info about a child abuser working in a school did #Dispatches report this straight to the police?

    Would have liked to hear #Dispatches say they have met with @metpoliceuk & passed them all the info they have collected

    The description of the programme in the link given is interesting,
    A victim of child sex abuse in one of Britain's religious communities goes undercover to expose the way his community has for decades been dealing with paedophilia.

    In a year-long investigation, other victims of child abuse from this closed community express their anger about the lack of justice caused by their leaders' misguided approach to dealing with the issue.

    In some cases those brave enough to complain to the police about their abusers have even been harassed, spat at and ostracised by other community members.

    This Channel 4 Dispatches special report also reveals that an alleged child abuser was allowed to continue working with children, despite complaints from his victim.

    And other victims, frustrated by their inability to bring child abusers to justice, tell Dispatches they've threatened and attacked those they believe to be paedophiles.

    No use of the 'J' word, wonder why?

    When can we expect a documentary on Muslim gangs grooming and then sexually abusing and raping young white girls? We all know it goes on, and so do the police and courts.

    Unfortunately large organisations have in the past tried to keep these scandals strictly `in house`. Hopefully those days are over and all such abuses will be reported to the police. Who will investigate. Unless they too are part of a paedo ring. In which case.....how`s about that then?

    Disgusting, the police should be informed in all cases of child abuse so there can be a full and proper investigation and the people found guilty put in prison where they belong.
