Fight breaks out as sex gang convicted of grooming young girls

Police and social workers apologised today for not protecting vulnerable schoolgirls who were sexually abused and exploited by a paedophile ring in the UK.

The admissions of failure which saw the girls being drugged and raped when they were supposed to be in the care of the authorities came as a gang of men were found guilty of a catalogue of offences including rape, trafficking and organising prostitution over eight years involving girls as young as 11 in the Oxford area.
