I was refering to the myths that rape and grooming of young girls is rife and prevalent amongst british pakistani muslims (I thought this is what we were talking about).
I have never disputed that rape does not happen in the pakistan cultures - I am arguing that this case and associated cviews comes across as its down to their culture that these guys committed the crimes, that there is a racist element involved because only white girls were targetted, and that religion influenced there way of thinking.
You produced a link about rape and its effects in PAkistan, I produced one closer to home.
On the point of only white girls being targetted - it might be that only white girls reported the rape. There could have been pakistani girls raped too, but they might not have come foward. There might have also been other girls raped but they might never have come forward.
