The 219-page Rape Gang Inquiry Report, released on June 16, 2026, was led by Reform UK MP Rupert Lowe and survivor advocate Sammy Woodhouse. Funded by more than 20,000 British supporters, this investigation reveals a major failure in child protection. It documents the systematic grooming, rape, trafficking, and abuse of at least 250,000 vulnerable White British girls by mostly Muslim Pakistani gangs throughout the UK.
The report’s main finding is clear. Organized groups, with 87-95% of convicted offenders having Muslim names, mostly of Pakistani background, targeted girls as young as 11 from unstable homes and care systems. Groomers used gifts, alcohol, drugs, and attention to lure victims, then took them to various locations for repeated abuse. They filmed the abuse for blackmail, trafficked victims, used pregnancies for control, forced conversions, and treated the girls inhumanely. These patterns appeared in at least 149 local authority districts, nearly 40% of the UK, showing the problem was widespread and had been happening since the 1950s.
Survivor stories, such as “Chloe’s”—who was abused by hundreds of mainly Pakistani Muslim men, trafficked across the country, forcibly converted, and left with lifelong trauma and a child born from rape—are at the heart of the report. Parents and whistleblowers also described the horror: girls missing for days, 13-year-olds with STIs, and repeated failures by institutions.
