"An inquiry into these grooming gangs in Rotherham found 1,400 children had been sexually abused over 16 years, predominantly by British Pakistani men."
Apparently there was an inquiry about it in the UK and the problem was either found to be ignored by authorities or covered up over many years. Reports were ignored and government officials said it wasn't a problem and not worthy of investigation.
Another big part of it was because the victims were found to be white...and that nothing was done about it, because the offenders were people of color and officials didn't want to sound racist for pointing it out:
"The failure to address the abuse was attributed to a combination of factors revolving around race, class, religion and gender—fear that the perpetrators' ethnicity would trigger allegations of racism;"
