Organised child sex abuse 'growing problem' in Wales
7 January 2011
Children trafficked in Wales are being moved around the country and across
the UK, says children's charity Barnardo's. They are moved along the M4
corridor in south Wales and the A55 in north Wales to places including
London, Bristol, Birmingham and Liverpool, it says. Meanwhile, an AM says nearly
30 children in Wales' social services system have been identified as
victims of organised child sexual abuse....
The charity says it is working with more than 1,000 abused children who
are moved around British towns and cities. Dr Sam Clutton, lead policy
officer for child sexual exploitation at Barnardo's Cymru, said a "sophisticated
grooming process" saw young people being tricked by abusers. She told BBC
Radio Wales: "We know that this is becoming more organised and more tied
into organised crime.
