1st Pakistani Peer Was a Child Sex Abuser -- But So Was Prince Andrew

 Britain's first Pakistani Muslim peer from Rotherham was later convicted for sexually assaulting children.  During trial, prosecutor Tom Little QC told the court Lord Ahmed had attempted to rape the girl in the early 1970s, when the defendant was aged 16 or 17 but she was much younger.

The repeated attacks on the boy, who was aged under 11 at the time, also happened during the same period.

Mr Little said Lord Ahmed claimed the allegations were a "malicious fiction" but a phone recording of a 2016 conversation between the two victims showed they were not "made-up or concocted".

Lord Ahmed, who was convicted following a retrial, resigned from the House of Lords in November 2020 after a conduct committee report concluded he had sexually and emotionally exploited a vulnerable woman who sought his help.

In 2022, Labour MP Nazir Ahmed was convicted of raping a young boy, aged 9, in Rotherham. He was originally jailed for 3.5 years. However, this sentence was quietly reduced to just SIX MONTHS on appeal. The appeal judges were all Labour-voting liberals.

More: The prominent Labour peer Lord Ahmed of Rotherham was jailed for 12 weeks today after admitting sending texts while driving shortly before his Jaguar ploughed into a stationary car on the M1, killing its driver.

He was sent straight to the cells from Sheffield crown court after a judge described his texting as "prolonged, deliberate, repeated and highly dangerous", even though it was not directly linked to the accident.

Ahmed, 51, will serve half the sentence behind bars and the rest on licence. His solicitor said he would appeal against the sentence, claiming the peer was being made a "scapegoat" because of his profile.

His position in the House of Lords will not be affected. Peers such as Lord Archer have served much longer terms. But Mr Justice Wilkie's comments will add to the political damage suffered by the peer, who has been an outspoken and sometimes controversial figure since he joined the Lords in 1998 as one of its youngest members and only the second Muslim member.

Prince Andrew

Prince Andrew has not been convicted of a sex crime against an underage childe but he did pay his accuser a large sum of money. 

Ms Giuffre says the duke sexually assaulted her on three occasions when she was under the age of 18.  

The first time was in 2001 in London. In a 2019 interview with the BBC, she said she was introduced to Prince Andrew by Epstein and his then-girlfriend, socialite Ghislaine Maxwell, who took them to a nightclub. Ms Giuffre recounts being told by Ms Maxwell as a 17-year-old that she had to "do for Andrew what I do for Jeffrey". Ms Giuffre  Later that evening she says she had sex with the duke upstairs at Ms Maxwell's house in Belgravia.

On the second occasion, it is alleged that Prince Andrew abused Ms Giuffre in Epstein's mansion in New York.  And she says the duke abused her a third time on Epstein's private island, Little St James, in the US Virgin Islands.

Ms Giuffre says in the court documents that she was forced into sex by explicit or implicit threats and because she feared the powerful connections, wealth and authority of Epstein, Ms Maxwell and Prince Andrew.

She says the duke knew her age and that she was a sex-trafficking victim.
