47 47  While comprehensive nationwide statistics are lacking (due to years of poor data recording), several reports and local investigations have provided numeric breakdowns of offender ethnicity in grooming gang cases. Below are examples illustrating the ethnic composition of grooming gang perpetrators in different contexts:
48 48  
49 49  **West Midlands Police (Operation “Protection” report, 2010):** An internal **problem profile** in March 2010 identified 75 suspects involved in group child sexual exploitation in the West Midlands. Of those 75 suspects, **79% were Asian**, 12% were White, and 5% were African-Caribbean. Furthermore, //“62% of Asian suspects are of Pakistani origin”//, meaning **about half of all suspects (37 of 75) were Pakistani-heritage males**. The report also noted 139 potential victims (78% of whom were white girls) that had been identified by that time. This confidential profile was not released publicly in 2010 – police feared the //“predominant offender profile of Pakistani Muslim males… combined with [white female victims] has the potential to cause significant community tensions.”// The data, obtained later via FOI, now stands as concrete evidence of what officers knew: in that region, the overwhelming majority of known grooming gang perpetrators were of South Asian (especially Pakistani) background. {{footnote}} https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/news/midlands-news/child-sexual-exploitation-force-west-9151006{{/footnote}} {{footnote}} https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-birmingham-32547630{{/footnote}}
