It is in the hundreds' replied Jade, a victim asked how many members of a grooming gang in High Wycombe had abused her. She is just one of hundreds of women across the UK who were victims of vile grooming gangs made up of mostly British-Pakistani men. She was speaking to Anna Hall on her 90-minute documentary Groomed: A National Scandal on Channel 4, which followed five victims who had bravely told their story of grooming, sexual assault and rape and the hands of their abusers. It also shed light on two women who began investigations into the scandal more than a decade ago and how their investigations were stopped in their tracks. Jade was one of two victims who waived their anonymity to appear in the film in person. Alongside fellow victim Chantelle, they told their stories of the men who took advantage of them when they were teenagers. Jade met her abusers after she moved out of her mother's home to go and live with her father, who she described as an alcoholic and 'raging heroin addict' It was her father's drug dealers who would invite her to parties and offer her a place to stay. She said the men would get her drunk and 'make me feel special'. Jade was placed into care when she was 14 years old. She remained in contact with the men who continued to invite her to parties. In her interview, she showed Anna evidence of how the grooming started - hundreds of messages inviting her to various parties, which then turned into asking for sexual favours. She said: 'I have gone home with black eyes, ran up the road naked to try and get away and they have picked me up.' Asked by Anna how many men abused her, she replied: 'It is in the hundreds, but I try not to go there.' In 2009, police became concerned about Jade after she had continuously gone missing from her home. They placed her on a police protection warning, which would force officers to investigate if she were missing again. A few weeks later, Jade and a friend attended one of the parties. She told Anna she woke up to police surrounding her. Jade was arrested and subsequently convicted for inciting sexual activity on a minor. Less than a month after police had put her under a protection order, she had been arrested on grooming charges. She had turned from a victim to a criminal in the eyes of the law. She served 14 months and was placed on the sex offenders' register, leaving her unable to have contact with people under 18 – even though she was under 18 herself. To this day, Jade remains a convicted sex offender. Her abusers have never faced criminal charges. She said: 'He is still walking free, having a happy life with his wife and kids. 'I have never been able to experience a school trip with my kids because they do a CRB check. They still class me as a sex offender.' A report that identified more than 300 young women at risk from Asian grooming gangs in Rotherham was blasted as 'toxic' by the Home Office. Youth worker Jayne Senior helped author the report, having initially been tasked to investigate what was then known as 'child prostitutes'. Asked by Hall whether the report's allegations were ignored because the perpetrators were 'overwhelmingly British-Pakistani'. Senior replied: 'I was told on more than one occasion that I needed to stop rocking the multicultural boat. We were talking about children that were being exploited, trafficked, tortured, raped.' The documentary also followed Detective Constable Maggie Oliver, who in 2003 was tasked with heading up Operation Augusta - a police operation into grooming gangs in Manchester. Their investigation found perpetrators of grooming were almost exclusively Asian adult males associated with the restaurant trade and their crimes ranged from assault to rape and manslaughter. In 2004, she met with survivor Steph, one of 57 victims identified in the operation. While on a car ride together, Steph had spotted a car she recognised as belonging to her abuser. A man who had imprisoned and raped her in a flat in Manchester for two days. She saw him get out of the car, recognising the man as her rapist. Maggie returned to the station and searched the man's car on the police database. She was then contacted by internal investigations, who asked why she had searched the man's vehicle. In a shocking revelation, she was told her team could not continue to investigate the man, as he was a serving police officer who was under investigation. Later that year, Maggie had to take compassionate leave due to her husband's illness. When she returned in 2005, Operation Augusta had been shut down. It was a decision that Greater Manchester Police came to later apologise for and has now made efforts to contact victims who were previously identified. Many believe that vile grooming gangs are a ghost of the past, however the film also featured an account from Scarlett, who was still being exploited by a gang just two years ago. In 2022 she was trafficked for sex across the country, in Wolverhampton, Bradford, Birmingham and Dudley. Concerned for her welfare, Scarlett's father Marlon had his daughter taken into care. However, this did not stop her from becoming a target of the groups who exploited her. In the bedroom of her Tameside care home, she was instructed to cut crack cocaine for the gang and distribute it to buyers. Her father said: 'This was a care home which Tameside children's services instructed us to go to and paid for.' Chantelle, now in her 30s, is another survivor who gave her real name and appeared on screen. Alongside her brothers and sisters, she was moved into care age 8. By age 11, they were moved to Manchester, where she said men began appearing outside the children's home. She began what she believed was a relationship with a man aged in his 20s while she was still just 11. He asked her to perform oral sex on himself and other men in his car. Chantelle said her abuser gave her gifts of an expensive ring, clothes and a mobile phone. When Chantelle went to the police to tell them about the sexual abuse she had suffered, they confiscated her phone and ring. Police said Chantelle was a child prostitute and was putting herself at risk. To this day, Chantelle's abusers have never been charged. As previously reported, the film also shone a light on protestors who have denounced grooming gang trials as racist. The organiser of a group called Fighting For Fair Trials, who says many offenders have been wrongly imprisoned, has now condemned the derogatory phrases used by others in online chats. But Samira Khan told MailOnline that supporters were justified in speaking out against girls and young women they feel have made up claims about alleged predators. She was speaking as a new Channel 4 documentary about Britain's grooming gangs - called Groomed: A National Scandal - includes testimony from five women telling of their ordeals. One video clip included in the programme due for broadcast on Wednesday shows her convicted rapist brother Irfan Khan complaining about being behind bars - saying it was 'unfair', although he was not heard calling women names. Exchanges recorded from chats during TikTok livestreams include comments such as 'The Rochdale thing is a lie. There were no grooming gangs.' One woman is heard saying, 'The judge was a number one idiot', before a man comments: 'The minute you've been charged, you're guilty.' Another woman quoted says: 'People get less for murder. Most of these "victims" – not all of them again, most of them – are absolute liars.' Comments shown written in a private WhatsApp group accessed by the Channel 4 documentary makers include 'Accuser is not a victim', 'She's a known prostitute', 'Sick cow' and 'These lying b****es'. Other remarks include 'Dirty stinking f***ing dog' and 'They talk s***'. Samira Khan, who leads the campaign group Fighting For Fair Trials, told MailOnline she disapproved of derogatory comments posted online. She said: 'The group has used abusive words online, I agree with that. 'The thing is, I can't be sat 24/7 on my phone going through what people are saying - I can't control what comes out of everyone's mouths. 'Just the way some of the victims are angry, what do you think these families are feeling - are they not allowed to show their emotions, say how they're feeling, if some of these girls are recruiting other girls to come forward?' Talking of grooming gang abuse, she added: 'I'm not saying it doesn't happen - it does happen and it shouldn't happen.' Among those jailed is Samira Khan's brother Irfan Khan, 37, from Batley in West Yorkshire, who was last year sentenced to 12 years in prison, with a five-year extended licence, for three offences of rape and making threats to kill. He was part of a group of more than 20 sexual predators locked up last year for a total of 346 years after eight young girls in West Yorkshire were raped, abused and trafficked across 13 years. The programme suggests that Irfan Khan could have broken prison rules by having a mobile phone - but his sister told MailOnline this was not the case. She said her brother had called her mobile from a prison landline, coincidentally at a time when she was taking part in the live broadcast and so he could be heard. Ms Khan is heard telling fellow viewers: 'Hey, my brother’s on the line – he wants to talk to you guys.' After a fellow participant asks, 'Is that Irfan?', she replies: 'Yeah, he's on the phone.' Irfan Khan is then heard being asked by another man, 'How’re you doing, bro, you good?' The convicted offender responds by saying: 'I'm all right, man – how are you? ‘Since I’ve been inside there's been so many come inside all of a sudden – it's been like a domino. Half of Dewsbury’s inside. 'And it's really unfair – you know, it’s just unfair. I’ve done nothing wrong and I've sat here for 15 months.' Tameside council said its safeguarding work around CSE was positively highlighted by Ofsted but that it recognised it still had more to do. It said it was working to provide the best possible service to keep children safe and that it welcomed feedback from families.
