"Five men, full of hate - and it doesn’t matter to my family and
extended family what colour these men are - murdered my eldest son" -
Angela Donald, mother of murder victim Kris Donald
STRATHCLYDE Police abandoned a high-level investigation to clamp down
on the emergence of an Asian gang culture in Glasgow after the
operation was deemed to be politically incorrect.
The revelation came as Nick Griffin, the leader of the British
National Party, prompted outrage by announcing a visit to Glasgow
this weekend, days after a teenager was abducted and murdered,
allegedly by a gang of Asian youths.
Police and community leaders in the Pollokshields area of Glasgow
called for calm, following rising public concern over the kidnap and
murder of Kriss Donald, 15.
As detectives continued the hunt for his killers, The Scotsman
learned that Operation Gadher, a police investigation designed to
tackle the growth of Asian gang culture in the city’s southside, was
stopped six months ago over fears that it wasn’t politically correct.
Speaking yesterday, a police source said the operation, launched by
Strathclyde’s G Division, which covers Pollokshields, had been halted
by senior officers. He said: "Gang culture among Asians has been
causing the police concern for some time, and we did have a dedicated
team looking at it, but six months ago a number of senior officers
got cold feet, claiming it didn’t look good to be solely
investigating Asian gangs.
"The decision wasn’t welcomed in the station."
Detective Superintendent Elliot McKenzie, who is leading the murder
investigation, said his inquiry team of more than 60 officers had
been overwhelmed by the response from the public.
He added: "We have recovered two cars in the Glasgow area that are
being examined.
"I am delighted with the response from the public. People are
genuinely shocked at this crime, and this is reflected in the amount
of calls from those anxious to help."
Mr Griffin claimed the trip to Scotland had been part of the BNP’s
long-term strategy for the European elections.
He is also planning to visit Pollokshields tomorrow.
However, John Swinney, the SNP leader, revealed he had written to the
Chief Constable of Strathclyde Police, Willie Rae, calling for the
police to examine what powers they have to prevent Mr Griffin from
visiting the area.
A police spokeswoman said banning the BNP would prove difficult. "We
can’t ban someone from visiting a city. However, we are aware of the
proposed visit, which is continually being assessed," she said.
Angela Donald, the mother of the murder victim, pleaded with people
in the south side of the city to help bring the killers of her son to
justice, instead of venting their anger in tit-for-tat racial
violence.
She said: "Five men, full of hate - and it doesn’t matter to my
family and extended family what colour these men are - murdered my
eldest son. Kriss is gone because of gangs, not just in
Pollokshields, but every area of our communities.
"However, I would urge the public not to target the Asian community
because of his death. Kriss’s life and short time in our world will
be for nothing if those responsible are not caught and punished for
the horror they have brought to my family."

This is worth repeating: "Police abandoned a high-level investigation
to clamp down on the emergence of an Asian gang culture in Glasgow
after the operation was deemed to be politically incorrect."

*******************************************
I couldn't believe my eyes when I read this arrticle this morning...I
thought "This must be a first" the report below.
It was at the top of the paper this morning on the net, then it was whipped
off quite suddenly. I only found it by going through a "different" search.
They have actually mentioned that the perpetrators are black, which is
unusual in a first report for the TV (well BBC) etc
Shropshire is a very quiet rural area oif you don't know it ...most of it
anyway. Telford is getting very rough as it evident from the report so I
don;t know whether they were told to withdraw the report from the internet
or what happened. Its had been replaced by a report of a paedophile.

Man injured in gun terror at house
A 36-year-old man was injured when an armed gang burst into a Telford home
and threatened him with a gun, police revealed today. It is believed the
victim was confronted by five men at the house in Hayward Avenue,
Donnington.
Three men were arrested today in early morning swoops in the Telford area.
Detectives are this afternoon attempting to trace two others.
The gang struck in Donnington earlier this week.
Three houses in the Trench, Arleston and Donnington areas were raided and
searched, but no weapons recovered.
The 36-year-old victim suffered an injury to his face when confronted by the
gang at the house on Tuesday night.
Detective Inspector Phil Pledger, of Telford CID, said it appeared there was
a dispute between the victim and the five men who burst into the house. He
said it was believed a handgun may have been produced by one of the gang.
The victim, who has not been named, suffered a cut face during the
confrontation and was left shocked.
"If there was a firearm it is uncommon for them to be used in this way in
the Telford area, but we are treating this matter very seriously," said Mr
Pledger.
The victim and his girlfriend were temporary lodgers at the home of a couple
who are not connected to the raiders.
Mr Pledger said the five men burst into the house just after 9pm.
"The background details to the dispute between the victim and the men are
being investigated," said Mr Pledger.
He said the five men, described as being black, made their escape in two or
three vehicles - one of which may have been a people carrier.
Three men were arrested today - two at a house in Teagues Crescent, Trench,
and another at Ash Lea Drive, Donnington.
The men - in their late 20s and early 30s - were being questioned today on
suspicion of aggravated burglary and firearms offences.
An appeal has been made for witnesses who may have been in Hayward Avenue on
Tuesday between 9pm and 9.45pm.
Anyone with information can contact Detective Sergeant Pete

Except you left off this bit -
"Speaking yesterday, a police source said the operation, launched by
Strathclyde’s G Division, which covers Pollokshields, had been halted

Can anyone tell me why they should only be investigating Asian gangs
when it is evident that white gang violence is a problem there?

Fine, OK a risk of upsetting immigrant sensibilities. Never mind the
crime originating from same . I can follow that.

Fine, OK, seek any possible way available to curtail the freedom of
movement of the leader of an established political party in order to
avoid the risk of upsetting immigrant sensibilities. I can follow that.
I think I am getting the hang of this multicultural thingy.
Am I allowed to still say 'hang' after all it is frighteningly
reminiscent of 'lynch'?

It is a valid question. Why don't you want white gangs investigated
too?

Tell you what, I've just found another three, dedicated to the same

Still, after 100 or so years of it, I can see why the police might
have got bored.

Presumably they had needed police officers with the correct appearance and
linguistic skills to infiltrate these gangs, which would make it more
specialist.
One assumes they have always investigated indiginous criminality.

99.9% of the gangs you posted are just stupid kids and certainly not capable
of child murder. If the police feel there is a need to launch an
investigation into Asian gangs, which obviously there is, then they
shouldn't be bound by political correctness.
