Ministers block move to lift Official Secrets Act provding cover to perpetrators of child sexual abuse

published by You on 22 March, 2015 - 21:52

It is quite surprising to come across : the government defeated a bill which would have given immunity to "whistle blowers" uncovering or reporting child sexual abuse by high profile individuals.

Recently it has been reported that there was an investigation into a high profile paedophile ring involving westminister, but it was closed down, all documents taken and the officers threatened under the official secrets act.

This government seems to talk the talk when it comes to uncovering historical crimes against children of a sexual nature, but it doesnt want to walk the walk.

The idea, according to the Mail on Sunday, was for the protest to be scrapped, with Amin taking the credit for defusing the situation.

Surah Al Kahf is a learning based application with complete recitation, explanation, and transliteration. This application has been conveyed keeping in view the monstrosity of Surah Kahf for Muslims.

This is a faultlessly delineated out application with sound recitation of the Surah Al-Kahf. This application has been passed on keeping in view the essentialness of Surah Kahf for Muslims.
