Gang rape or communal sex


It is usual practice of male social circles of Indian subcontinent. I was looking for a folk dancer for an Asian community event in Manchester and have asked many friends neighbours about any person willing to perform on the stage. It is city centre of Manchester. There used to be one Asian restaurant on the Oldham Street. I went to that restaurant and asked the owner if he knows anyone. He asked me what type of dance you are looking for. I told him Pakistani/Punjabi folk dance. He repeated the question again with bit of smile on his face. I told him folk dance? Then he asked me again (“pher kidaan da dance”?) but what kind of dance. I have told him as far I know there is only type of dance like folk dance or dance like dance on film songs in films. He told me that you know everything don’t try to be so innocent. I assured him and asked if he could shed some light on the dances of Indian sub continent. He started bit cautiously by saying that locally (England) two types of dances are performed one is ordinary dance and other is naked dance. I became bit more interested to know this type of information. I have asked him how it works and all procedure of it to arrange one. He told me a group of people get together and share the cost of the event. This event usually includes food drinks (alcoholic usually) dance and sex. He continued explaining more that if expenditure is say 600 quid’s and 10 people in the group, each person contribute 60 quid’s towards the cost of the event. If there is one dancer then she should expect queue of 10 or two dancers have 5 each. Other interesting thing he told me that girls or woman from Manchester goes to other cities and from other cities comes to Manchester. I told him I thought alcohol is prohibited for Muslims of all countries and then how come alcoholic drinks? He told me that yes it is in books but if you want to see it practically come to my restaurant on Friday nights and go to the basement and you will find mostly Muslims drinking alcohol. He also pointed out that you are talking about alcohol is prohibited for Muslims but what about sex out of marriage. Is it allowed? I told him certainly it is not.
It doesn’t mean that all people are like this. There are lots of good people in the UK.  I have now some information about these dances and thought I better research about groups involved in these types of activities. There are two or three types of groups in most big cities involved in these type of activities. Some groups have their own flats or houses only for this type of activities called “Dera”. Basically word dera is of Punjabi origin which is a place where friends neighbours and other people of village come for chat, gossip or just to pass time on hooka. The dera is also used to be a last hope for travellers for water and food and pass time when temperature is too hot. These deras used to be a meeting point for villagers. On the other hand these deras in uk you find all types of drinks food and even drugs. These dera holders always look for new recruits for their following. I have been to two or three deras in London and Manchester. It is London where I have visited one dera. The dera holder was one Pakistani taxi driver at that time who was on asylum with whole his family. He took me to one house seems empty with lots of alcohol empty bottles. I think he brought one refuse bag into the house and put all bottles and rubbish for disposal. I have asked him about who lives in this house. He told me uncle it is my dera. Iam not sure who was paying rent for that house or someone was claiming rent for that house. It was my first meeting and on subsequent meetings I have found out about his other activities which were mostly dodgy. Someone told me when he visit Pakistan police car or officers are always at his resident.
The second visit to the dera was in Manchester. It was Rusholme area of Manchester and I went there with someone by chance. It was terraced house and three men sitting there and drinking brandy. The dera holder started telling me about him I should call it his biography which includes robbery and drugs dealings etc. Few minutes latter his phone started ringing. I heard some other people coming from Birmingham or Leicester. They arrived while I was there and were two men and three white girls. The men previously present in the house asked these girls for massage and then they started rubbing their shoulders. They started smoking hashish and the cigarette started passing one by one to each other. When it came to me as my turn I took one puff of the cigarette and as soon as person who came with me saw it suddenly asked me to go. While we were coming out that dera holder told me that one person is doing business is not good as two people partnership. When property was very cheap he bought many houses and rented to unemployed people. We left that dera and that person with me told that cigarette I took puff off was filled with drug that’s why I asked to go. He was new recruit to the dera at that time and later on he became permanent member of the dera.
It astonished me that the both dera holders from London and Manchester knew each other. It means that these type of people they work as group or chain on national basis or even in some cases international.
Few days later after visiting this dera in Manchester I went to Rusholme to buy some sweets. As soon as I have parked my car that dera holder was there and came to me. He said that if we work together we can increase our business more. I told him it is good idea but how we could cooperate. He told me I will bring fake bank cards and you keep getting money from the cards by selling goods. After transaction is complete we can share the money 50/50 basis. I told him that I don’t need money anymore because I don’t want to go in dodgy dealings for money.
These dera holders and their members bring dancers as well not only from uk but from Pakistan too. It is my second time on the dera in Manchester the person who took me first time there he is now living there. He lost his family and business due to this dera activities. He is now on benefits and he begged for helping him to get out of that situation. On the other hand he was trying to involve me in the dera as recruit by saying that if you want to buy anything from the chain stores they can buy it for me at half price.  
While I was sitting there he had telephone call from the dera holder and got all updates about the dera. Few minutes later another call from him and he instructed him to come to another dera and bring me as well. While I was driving him there he told me that during these type of meetings they consumes 500-600 quids per night worth of drugs only. I took him to his desired place which was in Hulme area. I dropped him off there and again he tried to persuade me to go with him in that meeting by saying that they have many girls there. Anyway I left him there.

One of these types of dera holder was living in the Manchester’s tallest new building in the city centre. I presume rents and prices of the flats in that building are not cheap. How do they afford this type of living? According to one source his daily income is about 5000k per day. He always looks for people trying to recover money from others. He is in other words debt collector as well and all recovered money goes into his pocket instead of the real person.
There are one more group in this category that has no fixed space like dera and look for people with empty flats or houses. They use these flats or houses for one or two nights by asking the owner that he has some guests and use his flat / house for one or two nights.

 It is a Massage parlour on Barlow moors Road Chorlton Manchester near Wilbraham Road traffic lights. One of the dera members asked me to give him lift to this place. I brought him there and he told me stay here while he comes back. He went out and came back after 45 minutes. I asked him why it took so long time. He told me that he went to massage parlour for massage. He told me that they use the name massage parlour but in reality these are British brothels open 24/7 hours. According to him it is not only Chorlton but these are in all areas of the city and other cities as well. These are mostly advertised in local papers as massage parlour open 24 hours. It is not only Britain most muslim countires have these type of places where prostitution is practiced freely.
Few years ago it was harbanse pura of Lahore pakistan where one of my host arranged this type of function. I have been told by the host we are going somewhere surrounding area. We arrived in a house where there was a young man, a bit older man, 3 years old girl and pregnant young women. One of the members of our group talked something to the young man of the house. He went out on his motor bike and came back with one young Pakistani woman. As soon she entered the room she introduced her self by shaking hand with each of us. After few minutes we came out in the front yard of the house which called “vairah” or in urdu “sehen”. They asked me to go first in the room to start the function. I have told them we just came out of from the room. They smiled and told me to go inside for cooling down you. I have told them Iam not interested in it. All of them were looking strangely at me and then two of them went in one by one. Third one became bit shy due to me and refused to go. They paid couple of thousand rupees? to the young man and then we left the house. These people have told me you can find these types of brothels on demand everywhere in Pakistan. If things get wrong sometimes leads to reporting to the police as gang rape like it has been reported in many places. Next day I have told them Iam in the hotel although I was staying with one of my nephew. They asked me to give them address they will bring Pakistani girls there but I have told them my nephew is with me.
