-Caveat Lector-                       Muslim leaders fear thousands of children are abused at madrassas By Robert Verkaik, Legal Affairs Correspondent  3/22/06 "Thousands of Muslim schoolchildren are being physically and sexually abused by their religious teachers every year, according to a report into the Islamic education system in this country.  The potential scale of the abuse has led to fears among Muslim leaders that Britain's Mosque-based schools will face the kind of child abuse claims that has recently scandalised the Roman Catholic Church. Up to 100,000 children are taught at 700 Islamic schools, or madrassas, of which almost a half use unlawful corporal punishment to discipline pupils, says the report into child protection published today by the Muslim Parliament of Great Britain. The authors also warn that each year at least a dozen children are sexually abused by their teachers and Imans with very few cases ever being made public."  http://news.independent.co.uk/uk/legal/article352827.ece   Missing since 8th grade, woman rejoins family 3/24/06 By Dan Nephin, McKeesport, Pa. "As an eighth-grader in 1995, Tanya Nicole Kach skipped class one day and was caught by a school security guard. In a stairwell, the troubled teenager and the guard who was more than twice her age began kissing, according to the story she told authorities. Soon, they hatched a plan for her to run away from home and live with him....Allegheny County Police Superintendent Charles Moffatt said Kach wasn't allowed out of Hose's house for the first four years. Kach said she used a bucket as a bathroom, kept bottled water nearby and wore secondhand clothes for most of the 10 years she stayed with Hose in the tiny two-story frame house. Hose and Kach began a sexual relationship soon after she ran away, and it continued into adulthood, according to the charges against Hose. Moffatt said Hose used ''mind games'' to control what Kach wore and where she went and to convince her that her parents, who are now divorced, didn't care about her." http://www.suntimes.com/output/news/cst-nws-miss24.html www.ctrl.org DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
