Sir Ian Blair: Police and universities working together to tackle ‘aggresive conversions’

Extremist Muslims who force vulnerable teenage girls to convert to Islam are being targeted by police, Met chief Sir Ian Blair has revealed.

Police are working with universities to clamp down on “aggressive conversions” during which girls are beaten up and forced to abandon university courses.

The Hindu Forum of Britain claims hundreds of mostly Sikh and Hindu girls have been intimidated by Muslim men who take them out on dates before terrorising them until they convert.

Sir Ian spoke about the problem at a conference organised by the forum.

A Met spokesman said: “Neighbourhood officers work with university authorities in London and we would encourage anyone targeted in this way to seek help and support and where necessary use third party reporting facilities if they do not want to contact police directly.”

Ramesh Kallidai, of the Hindu Forum of Britain, said: "Some girls are petrified because they are constantly being phoned up, having their door knocked.

“One girl was beaten up on the street and others have been forced to leave university.”

Comment:

In Islam the principle of la ikra fiddeen ( No compulsion in religion) is well known and understood. During Islamic rule in India temples were allowed to exist and hindus were allowed to practice their faith without being forced to convert to Islam.

The evidence for this can be seen in the temples which exist from the Mughal period and the fact the hindus are a majority in India. Still to this day temples exist and millions of Hindus live in Pakistan and Bangladesh side by side with Muslims.

Muslims, Christians, low caste people and other minorities are now suffering in India and being forced to convert to hinduism, places of worship being atttacked and rape and abuse on a daily basis.

If those Muslims boys as alleged are dating hindi and Sikh girls then they certainly are not abiding by the teachings of Islam, which forbids dating, so why should thier actions of intimidation and violence be linked and blamed on Islam?

The Hindu forum and many Sikh organisations are very concerned that large numbers of their youth have integrated and assimilated into western society and have turned their back on the faith of their parents and grand parents and hundreds have converted to Islam., but most have adopted the Secular values of western society.

From time to time to highlight the problem which exist within their communities they raise this controversial issue with its historical overtones about Muslims converting their daughters to Islam, quite funny that they ignore what their sons are up to, sometimes with Muslim girls and never focus their venom on the Secular western society whose ills can seen on the news daily.

disgusting!!!!!!

Re: Police protect Hindu/Sikh girls forced to convert to Islam

I think hindu girls covert to Islam as they are in love with muslim guys and the families cannot accept that they have converted to Islam out of free choice and make these wild allegations. I am disgusted that the Police are taking these allegations seriously and are seeing muslims as a problem.

Re: Police protect Hindu/Sikh girls forced to convert to Islam

Hard to believe that Girls born and brought up in UK are going to be intimidated to convert. First of all why would they date these religious zealots? It does'nt make sense at all. I think it is the parents who are having hard time accepting the fact that their daughter has converted to Islam and married a muslim guy.

Re: Police protect Hindu/Sikh girls forced to convert to Islam

This is so surreal; what's wrong with this picture: Muslim fundamentalist dating Hindu girls...unh....sure...okay. I mean, if the *Hindu *forum says it's true...then it must...right?

If it's really happening...then what can I say...easily the most bizarre and pathetic news I've heard coming out from the U.K....

Re: Police protect Hindu/Sikh girls forced to convert to Islam

Muslim guys can be serious jerks.. They are as horny as anyone but they have the religion thing in the back of their mind…
I had a Hindu friend, happened to be a girl… She was dating a Pakistani guy who got her preganant but wouldnt marry her because his mother wouldnt accept a non Muslim! So offcourse, she had to get an abortion…
It sucks, but there are many Muslim jerks.

Re: Police protect Hindu/Sikh girls forced to convert to Islam

Good ol' Daily mail, wasn't this the same paper that created an outcry when it claimed that muslims in th U.K. do not want to see Christmas decorations in public places, later on this claim prooved to be baseless. in the past this paper has shown no integrity when reporting anything about muslims. so excuse my distrust for this report.

Re: Police protect Hindu/Sikh girls forced to convert to Islam

There are some who are trying to improve perception of Islam while majority is of those who want to drag it through the hell hole.

Re: Police protect Hindu/Sikh girls forced to convert to Islam

^ ^ ^
there is no smoke..without fire!:D

Re: Police protect Hindu/Sikh girls forced to convert to Islam

i would reverse the some and majority, and it would make sense. rather some are trying to improve perception, some are dragging it through hell hole and majority are just minding their own business.

Re: Police protect Hindu/Sikh girls forced to convert to Islam

yeah but thinking that its a five alarm fire whern its only 2 ppl smoking a huqqa is a bit much :slight_smile:

Re: Police protect Hindu/Sikh girls forced to convert to Islam

...and majority doesn't get noticed.

Re: Police protect Hindu/Sikh girls forced to convert to Islam

sure, thats the case everywhere. its in rare cases where majority..or a sizable minority just gets up..examples of that would be freedom movements, or the french revolution etc.

take for example the iraq war and US
there are some ppl in opposition, there were some ppl very pro war
majority did not really do anything.

Re: Police protect Hindu/Sikh girls forced to convert to Islam

These muslims are doing a nice job of converting kafir girls to Islam? Whats your problem? Are you a Pakistani? I would rather support a corrupt Muslims rather than supporting a non-muslim. :snooty:

Re: Police protect Hindu/Sikh girls forced to convert to Islam

So you support jerk mentality ?

Re: Police protect Hindu/Sikh girls forced to convert to Islam

couldn’t be more true.

My friend in england has a hindu wife(common law). She always go to mosque to know islam.
My silly friend doesn’t show any interest to her willingness to convert.

Re: Police protect Hindu/Sikh girls forced to convert to Islam

yep

Re: Police protect Hindu/Sikh girls forced to convert to Islam

Girls cant be intimated to covert in the UK! Its foolish!

'FORCED CONVERSIONS' MYTH MONGERING BY BRITISH POLICE

25 February 2007

Letter to The Guardian (UK)

Dear Editor

Metropolitan Police Commissioner Ian Blair's
recent announcement that the police and
universities are working together to target
'extremist Muslims who force vulnerable teenage
Hindu and Sikh girls to convert to Islam' is
disturbing. This statement has been made on the
basis of claims by the Hindu Forum of Britain who
have not presented any evidence that such 'forced
conversions' are taking place. In fact the notion
of 'forced conversions' of young Hindu women to
Islam is part of an arsenal of myths propagated
by right-wing Hindu supremacist organisations in
India and used to incite violence against
minorities. For example, inflammatory leaflets
referring to such 'conversions' were in
circulation before the massacres of the Muslim
minority in Gujarat exactly five years ago which
left approximately 2,000 dead and over 200,000
displaced.

It is highly irresponsible to treat such
allegations at face value or as representative of
the views of Hindus in general.

While we would condemn any type of pressure on
young women to conform to religious beliefs or
practices (whether of their own community or
another) we can only see Sir Ian Blair's
statement as contributing to the further
stigmatising of the Muslim community as a whole
and as a pretext for further assaults on civil
liberties in Britain.

Yours sincerely,

Dr Meena Dhanda, University of Wolverhampton, Dr
Subir Sinha SOAS, University of London, Dr
Rashmi Varma, University of Warwick, Dr Kalpana
Wilson, SOAS, University of London, Dr Anandi
Ramamurthy, University of Central Lancashire, Dr
Manali Desai, University of Kent, Dr Pritam Singh

Re: Police protect Hindu/Sikh girls forced to convert to Islam

When one decides to live in a society away from his/her cultural roots he/she should have the courage to accept intermingling of cultures, beliefs.

Purity of races..who invented this term ?
