British Police Assisting Honour Murders

It seems "South Asians" - don't they mean Muslims - that have wormed their way into the police and government are actively supporting honour killings by refusing to invoke the law:

Some Asians Muslims in the police and in Government jobs have been accused of blocking the crackdown against so-called honour killings.

It is alleged they are not only failing to help desperate women trying to flee abuse and arranged marriages but are actively encouraging punishment for those they believe are breaking traditional taboos.

Terrified victims who seek official help are even being tracked down by a network of Asian Muslim men working in Government departments and social services, according to a study written by the think-tank Social Cohesion.

One woman was found by her family after she signed on at a Jobcentre where a member of the Asian Muslim community was working.

So, the non Muslim police officers can expose this outrage can't they?

Meanwhile, non-Asian non Muslim officials and police officers are scared of acting against families who abuse their relatives for fear of being branded as racist, the report says.

Doh! No they can't.

Controversially, the report accuses one of the Government's closest advisers on Muslim matters, the Muslim Council of Britain, of hampering attempts to criminalise forced marriage.
It said: "The MCB has sought to block legislation aimed at ending honour-based violence. Almost all women's groups interviewed for this report say that the MCB has done little or nothing to end honour-based violence...

"In many northern towns...South Asian Muslim women are often afraid to seek help because they know that Asians MUSLIMS working in local government believe that women who break traditional taboos deserve to be punished."

Report contributor Nazir Afzal, of the Crown Prosecution Service, added: "Domestic violence is not an issue the Muslim Council of Britain wants to know about."

So, no one is prepared to do anything about it then? I'll tell you what if anyone else were to indulge in domestic violence, providing the victim was prepared to press charges the assailant would be up before a judge without any doubt.

Just another example of sharia law being implemented by default.

David Davies, the Tory MP for Monmouth who is on the Home Affairs Select committee investigating forced marriages and domestic violence, said: "Thousands of girls are being taken to Pakistan every year for marriage, although it is best described as abduction and rape."

James Brandon, one of the report's authors, said: "It is estimated that ten women a year in Britain die through honour killings and honour violence. The Government must change the way it approaches this problem."

The MCB said: "Our position has always been clear: so-called honour killings are murder. They are severe criminal offences which we condemn."

I see, the MCB say honour killings are murder, but they do nothing according to the report contributor Nazir Afzal, of the Crown Prosecution Service. He said "Domestic violence is not an issue the Muslim Council of Britain wants to know about."

Seems to me like the MCB are into taqqiya (deception) by saying what they think we want to hear to placate us but doing the opposite i.e. condoning by doing nothing.

I would have thought that any Muslim employed in the police or government should be dismissed for failing to do their job if they leak information that could result in more violence or even murder. Is that too much to ask?

Oh, and BTW why is the Dail Mail referring to them as Asians on the one hand and then referring to the Muslim Council. Is it perhaps that they have received a directive from government to call Muslims Asians, and if so why are they obeying? It wouldn't be lawful.
