(GB News) Paedophile prisoners are converting to Islam to receive protection from Islamist gangs, a new report into the state of Britain’s prisons has revealed.
Giving rise to fears of Islamist radicalisation taking place in Britain’s jails, former prison governor Ian Acheson has found evidence inmates serving time for sex crimes against children are avoiding isolation from their peers by converting to Islam.
He said: “We’re now seeing evidence that convicted sex offenders, who in the traditional prison hierarchy were at the bottom of the pile and had to be segregated from the rest of the population for fear that they would be killed by them.
“We’re now seeing them walking openly in normal location because they’ve come under the protection of Muslim gangs.”
