On Thursday evening last week, the father of a 14-year-old girl was arrested by the National Police in Palma, charged with mistreatment in the family and causing serious injuries. The girl's stepmother was charged with the same offences but not arrested as she has two young children in her care.

tranq tranquerKeyboard error, does is 5 billion better. Now who would have guessed he be a Pakistani?
Nigel MaudeSeeing as the population of the world is around 8 billion I don't think there are 50 billion 'of Eastern origin'. And this person's religion or race is irrelevant - a low life is a lowlife regardless of where they were born or what god they worship! Unless you think it's important to make an issue of someone's race so you can tar everyone with the same brush!
Now we know - Pakistani. Makes you wonder what is going on behind the front doors of houses in Bradford, Bolton, Leicester et al. One thing is for sure, the British police will be not be going anywhere near, such is our so called " culture" nowadays.
"Eastern Origin"? There are 50 billion of eastern origin, and I am certain many further east of the perpetrator deny this slur, or is this a continuation of UK's grooming gangs, we dare not say because it is racial? What happened to the free press? My total sympathies are with this poor girl, why does our journalistic society protect these animals who do it in the name of religion, customs and traditions, of a far off land.
