UK grooming gangs inquiry names Bradford, Oldham, London and Keighley as first focus cities

GuardianBritain's national inquiry into grooming gangs has announced the first cities it will examine: Bradford, Oldham, London, and Keighley. The selection reflects areas with well-documented historical abuse cases that generated significant public and political pressure for accountability. The inquiry is expected to scrutinize how local authorities, police, and social services responded — or failed to respond — in each location.
