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.
