reporter rowan bridge. concerns that were raised as early as 2005 by a sexual health clinic in rochdale about the sexual activity of some young girls in the town. in 2007 they raised concerns about a gang of men of pakistani and afghan heritage sexually abusing children in the town and say that, basically from then on, the police investigations, up to sort of 2012, 2013, that this report looks at, never really got to the crux of the problem — that the investigations were shut down early, that they were under—resourced, and that there was a strategic failure at both rochdale council and by greater manchester police. so there were failings, yes, by the detectives investigating those cases, but also there was a more systemic failure by those at the very top of both the police and the council, in terms of how they dealt with this issue and what prominence they gave to it.

put resources into investigating that case. after that report, i think it was five senior officers and retired officers referred to the iop see for investigation. none of them would be interviewed. ultimately, the independent office for police conduct couldn't bring any action against them because there was sufficient evidence. the minutes of the meeting where operational gusto was closed down had gone astray, they were lost. so now we still have nobody held accountable for failing dozens and dozens of children in 2005, allowing 100 paedophiles to continue to walk the streets. on this case again, gary and malcolm make it very, very clear that there was a tiny number of the abusers ever held to account in relation to years of abuse. they are still walking the streets of rochdale. ruby, who is child three

supported those survivors who are now adults who wanted our help and we will continue to do so. and we have also helped the police to bring more perpetrators to justice and i know those operations and investigations are continuing. back investigations are continuing. back in 2012, the council looked at the actions of staff involved in these cases, going back to 2005. those responsible for the failings were reported to the regulatory body and internal disciplinary action was taken against those that had not already left the council. none of them have worked in rochdale since. nor will they ever do so again. they are gone and there are long gone.
