“Asian” rape gang ringleader Ahdel ‘Eddie’ Ali has been released back onto the streets just eight years into a notionally 26-year term for raping and pimping girls as young as 13.
32-year-old Ali was sentenced to a superficially impressive (by the standards of British justice, at least) 26-year extended sentence, including 18 years’ immediate custody and an additional eight years on licence after release but as with most British sentences, the headline numbers haven proven misleading, with rights to automatic early release on licence and other anti-prison provisions kicking in well before he had served even a single decade behind bars.
The leader of a sex gang that targeted 100 girls as young as 13 has been released from jail after serving just eight years of a 26-year sentence.
Ahdel Ali, 32, and his brother Mubarak lead the gang of seven men, which operated in Telford, Shropshire.
The town was a hub of abuse which saw up to 1,000 girls, some as young as 11, fall victim to sex gangs over a four-decade period.
Speaking on Good Morning Britain two years ago, one female victim of gangs in the town described the abuse she suffered as a whirlwind of rape .
Over a three-year period between 2006 and 2009, the Ali brothers gang targeted schoolgirls who they controlled as child prostitutes by giving them alcohol, food and money.
