{UAH} Edward Heath 'child sex abuse' allegation: Attention WBK

WBK,

Here is another revelation regarding homosexual abuse of children in
the UK going up to the highest level. Paedophelia was very well
organised in the UK, particluarly in the ranks of the Conservative
party and the establishment has since been engaged in a cover up. But
slowly, the murky secrets are beginning to be unravelled by persistent
investigators.

Edward Heath 'child sex abuse' allegation: Investigation to be held
into Wiltshire police handling of alleged claim in the 1990s

The Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC) will be
conducting the investigation

Loulla-Mae Eleftheriou-Smith Monday 03 August 2015


The police watchdog is to investigate Wiltshire police's handling of a
child sex abuse claim allegedly made against former Prime Minister Sir
Edward Heath in the 1990s.

The force is to be probed after allegations made by a retired senior
officer were referred to the Independent Police Complaints Commission
(IPCC).

An IPCC spokesman said it is to investigate "allegations concerning
Wiltshire Police's handling of an alleged claim of child sexual abuse
made in the 1990s".

He added: "It is alleged that a criminal prosecution was not pursued,
when a person threatened to expose that Sir Edward Heath may have been
involved in offences concerning children.

"In addition to this allegation, the IPCC will examine whether
Wiltshire Police subsequently took any steps to investigate these
claims."

Heath, a Conservative, was prime minister between 1970 and 1974 and
had a home in Wiltshire county. He died in 2005.

Wiltshire Police said it is carrying out enquiries to identify if
there are any witnesses or victims who support the allegations of
child sex abuse.

A police spokesperson said: "On becoming aware of the information,
Wiltshire Police informed the IPCC and later made a mandatory
referral. The IPCC investigation will specifically consider how the
force responded to allegations when they were received in the 1990s.

"Sir Edward Heath has been named in relation to offences concerning
children. He lived in Salisbury for many yars and we would like to
hear from anyone who has any relevant information that may assist us
in our enquiries or anyone who believes they may have been a victim."

"We take all reports of child abuse, either current or that occurred
in the past very seriously. Victims will receive support throughout
any investigation and associated judicial process.

"If there is evidence of offences having been committed we will ensure
that , if possible, those responsible are held to account through a
thorough and detailed investigation. This includes any other parties
who are identified as having been involved in child sex abuse."

Wiltshire Police stressed that it is working with the NSPCC to ensure
that any victims are appropriately supported and urged people to
contact the force and not to suffer in silence.

Wiltshire Police and Crime Commissioner Angus Macpherson said his
office has monitored the process of the investigation "at every
stage," adding that he will be "watching closely to see if any
evidence of corruption or poor practice is uncovered".

"My priority as Commissioner is to put the interests of victims at the
heart of everything we do, as well as holding the Force to account for
its performance," he said.

"We have often seen from high profile national cases that victims, who
have not spoken of their abuse for many years, find their voice and
speak out. I want any victims of child sex abuse, whether current or
historic, to know they can have confidence in the service they will
receive from Wiltshire Police."

NSPCC chief executive Peter Wanless said it is important that those
who believe they may have been the victims of abuse have the
confidence to speak up.

"Whether abuse happened in the past, or is occurring today, whether
those being accused are authority figures or not, allegations of
crimes against children must be investigated thoroughly.

"While some people wait years before speaking out we would urge them
to act quickly so they can get help as soon as possible. Our trained
helpline counsellors are always on duty round the clock to listen and
provide assistance."
