Criminal gangs targeting children in state care Paedophilia Ring

Criminal gangs targeting children in state care

ABC
BY THE NATIONAL REPORTING TEAM'S DAN OAKES
March 12, 2014,

Organised gangs of men are sexually exploiting children in out-of-home care and enticing them into trading sex for money, drugs and alcohol.

An ABC investigation has found children as young as 12 are being exploited by the men.

Some of the children have been transported between towns and even interstate, while the ABC has also been told that some abuse has been filmed by paedophiles. 

It is understood that police have identified between 30 and 40 children who are living in Department of Human Services residential care that may have been exploited in this fashion in the past 18 months, but the number could be higher.

The suburbs around Dandenong are believed to be an area of particular concern to police and the department.

Police have found it difficult to charge the perpetrators, as the victims, many of whom come from traumatic backgrounds, are reluctant to give statements implicating their abusers whether through fear, a mistrust of authority or a belief that they are not actually being abused.

The Department of Human Services and Victoria Police have spent two years working on a new approach to tackling the issue, which revolves around better sharing of information and educating workers on how to recognise the signs of sexual exploitation.

Police are also practising disruptive policing.

This can mean charging the abusers with drug or property offences to bring them into the criminal justice system and keep them away from their victims.

Staff from the department have also been embedded in the police sex crimes unit.

"What we would say is that these young people are not competent to make a decision, and using that word 'prostitution' implies that they are making a lifestyle choice, working in the sex industry," the department's chief practitioner, Robyn Miller, told the ABC. 

"They are children, they are young people, they have this history of trauma. They are not competent to make that decision.

"It is abuse and we name it that and we have a zero tolerance.  

"Our whole approach has been to raise consciousness within police and with carers that this is not adolescent behaviour, it is not experimentation, it is sexual exploitation and it is a form of abuse."

Men would choose a girl to have sex with
In one case that did go to court, a number of men in Shepparton were charged with child sex and prostitution offences after having sex with girls in return for cigarettes, cash and shopping trips.

At the plea hearing of the ringleader, Emran Dad, in 2012, the court heard that he gave a 13-year-old girl a pack of cigarettes in exchange for sex.



Another girl, 16, said Dad would contact her via Facebook, then drive her to the house of a friend of his.

The girl said other girls were at the house and that men would then turn up and choose a girl to have sex with.

She said they would be paid about $200 each time this happened, depending on the sex acts they would perform.

She said Dad would receive a separate $150 payment for organising it.

"The young people that we work with have experienced such loss and grief and pain that they are really vulnerable to people giving them attention, and these offenders are expert manipulators," Ms Miller said.  

"They are disgusting in the way that they entrap our young people, so they will use social media in an expert way and will befriend, so it's like they will pretend to be something they are not."

In a statement, Victoria Police said there had been a number of successful prosecutions for exploitation offences of this nature and that there were ongoing investigations.

The State Opposition's Jenny Mikakos says there must be an investigation.

"There needs to be a thorough inquiry into how this has happened," she said.

But Community Services Minister Mary Wooldridge says the exploitation precedes the current Government.

"It's only the Coalition Government that has responded comprehensively," she said.

She says 2,000 police, child protection and care workers have been trained disrupt the exploitation of children.

Indonesia to raise Australian asylum seeker policy with United States
ABC
By Helen Brown in Jakarta, staff

Indonesia says it will raise the Abbott Government's asylum seeker policy with the United States during official talks next week.

Jakarta has stepped up its protest to the Coalition's boat turn-back policy, calling in the Australian ambassador in Jakarta for a meeting with a senior official.

Indonesia's foreign affairs minister Marty Natalegawa says a strong protest message was given to Australian ambassador Greg Moriarty over the use of lifeboats to send asylum seekers back.

US, German and Russian backed INDONESIA has beefed up its military presence in waters off its southern border as military officials claim its air force is ready and that Australia is "reachabale"

Dr Natalegawa says Australia was already violating its international commitments, but the use of lifeboats to send people back is an escalation.

"What Australia has been doing is a bigger development than before," he said.

"In the past when they have turned back the boats, or pulled the refugee boats back to Indonesia, that alone is a violation against their international commitment under the Refugee Convention.

"But this time it has escalated."

Dr Natalegawa told reporters Indonesia does what it can to stop boats leaving the country and that Australia's actions are "against the values of humanity".

He says he will inform US secretary of state John Kerry - who will visit Jakarta next week - about Australia's actions and let officials draw their own conclusions.

"There is no need to ask; we only need to inform it, and let America draw its own conclusion," he said.

Dr Natalegawa says he will discuss Australia's policy with other countries as well.

A bush hideaway has become the focus of a counterterrorism investigation amid fears it was used by Khaled Sharrouf

Yoni Bashan State Political Reporter
The Sunday Telegraph
February 16,2014 

• 400 rounds were fired in an hour
• police allegedly found Khaled Sharrouf and associates at the property
• officers seized four high-powered rifles at the scene
• property is now focus of a multi-agency counterterrorism investigation

LAND owner is used to shooting parties spending the weekend at his remote property, Rockview. But there was something about the group who turned up in November last year that made him uneasy.

For a start there was the sheer amount of gunfire and style of shooting — 400 rounds fired in an hour by men lying on the ground in combat position.

The ground was covered “like a carpet” with spent ammunition, according to police.

Many of the bullets appeared to be aimed at a large tree, which authorities described as being “blistered” by bullets.

“They were on their guts shooting, like soldiers. It was very strange,” Mr Landry said. “They used, I think, 400 shots in an hour, one guy at a time. They were big guns as well.”

The booking was made under the name Jack. But when police arrived they allegedly found Khaled Sharrouf, convicted of plotting a terror attack in Sydney as one of the “terror nine”, his associate Omar Ammouche, a known counterintelligence target, an unnamed construction industry identity and an eight-year-old boy.

Officers seized four high-powered rifles at the scene.

Now the property at Glen Davis, near Lithgow, has become the focus of a multi-agency counterterrorism investigation amid fears it was used as a training ground by Sharrouf, who is believed to be in Syria after slipping out of the country illegally on his brother’s passport.

According to court documents police were called to the property on Crown Station Rd about 6.50pm on November 9 after complaints about noise. They arrived to find Sharrouf holding the butt of a CZ-brand bolt-action rifle with a scope attachment, against his right shoulder.

“The accused turned towards police and immediately placed the firearm on the ground upon seeing police. There was a large amount of spent ammunition on the ground,” the police statement of facts said.

“They were on their guts shooting, like soldiers. It was very strange,” Mr Landry said. “They used, I think, 400 shots in an hour, one guy at a time. They were big guns as well.”Michael Landry
Sharrouf told police he did not have a firearms license or permit, and claimed he did not fire the gun.

Ammouche was standing two metres away and said: “I thought if I was licensed I could supervise him, but he wasn’t shooting anyway and I was only sighting in.”

Police later said two bullets were found in the gun’s magazine.

Sharrouf was charged and convicted of possessing an unauthorised firearm. Ammouche is still before the courts for allowing an unauthorised person to possess a firearm.

ppppppppppppppp

The seized weapons were all licensed to Sydney man Ibrahim Massri, who loaned them to Ammouche, a licensed shooter whose permit is now facing suspension.

Sharrouf is facing two further charges, laid by the NSW Counter Terrorism Command, for using his brother’s passport to leave Australia 10 days after the firearms charge was laid.

The Sunday Telegraph revealed last week how Sharrouf, 31, boarded a flight for Kuala Lumpur from Sydney on December 6, less than a month after the trip to Glen Davis. His wife, Tara Nettleton — an Anglo-Australian who converted to Islam — has also left the country, authorities confirmed.

It is understood Mostafa Sharrouf, whose passport was used, has vigorously denied providing or assisting his brother to leave the country and had no knowledge of the event until notified by police.

"The accused turned towards police and immediately placed the firearm on the ground upon seeing police. There was a large amount of spent ammunition on the ground."police report
The booking, made for two nights from November 8, is not the first time the name Jack was used to book the cabins. There were two previous bookings at the 160 acre property, with each of the men paying $50 each per night.

Mr Landry said it was the first time he had seen Sharrouf at the farm.

Ammouche’s presence remains of deep interest to investigators. He was last year filmed by Channel Seven spitting on and assaulting Muslim community leader Jamal Daoud over a disagreement about Syria. A magistrate later ruled he was a “good community member and community builder”.

Similar remote locations in far western NSW were used by the “Terror Nine” — of which Ammouche is not a member — during investigations by Operation Pendennis to test and train with weapons.

“They are just criminals and don’t warrant any sort of special status,’’ Detective Superintendent Debbie Wallace

Don’t try to Ms around with our top cop, Detective Superintendent Debbie Wallace

Mark Morrie Crime Editor
The Daily Telegraph
February 14,2014

THE new boss of the NSW Police Gang Squad has a message for Sydney’s most infamous gang members: You’re nothing special.

And Detective Superintendent Debbie Wallace says she won’t treat gang bosses with kid gloves either. “They are just criminals and don’t warrant any sort of special status,’’ she said yesterday.

Supt Wallace takes it her stride that she is the first female boss of the Gang Squad.

“It’s really not an issue. I’ve been in the NSW police force for over 30 years. On my second day a respected policewoman I know told me there were two things to remember. Never lose your integrity or your femininity.’’

It’s not as if dealing with criminal gangs is anything new for Supt Wallace.

In the 90s she was a detective at Cabramatta fighting Asian street gangs, including the infamous 5T, which have since vanished.

And for the past five and half years she has headed the Middle Eastern Crime squad (MEOCS) which has been credited with the dismantling the vicious Brothers for Life gang responsible for dozens of shootings in Sydney over the past 12 months.

“There is a lot of crossover. Many Middle Eastern criminals are either in outlaw motor cycle gangs, associated with them or do business with them so my time with the MEOCS will help with the new role.

“The major difference is bikies have a banner which they trade on to intimidate people. Other gangs often implode or just die out, like the 5T and the Brothers for Life which sprung up in 2008 and have now been reduced markedly.

“But bikies have a brand which is more enduring and even international. They wear their colours which to them gives them special status.’’

Supt Wallace said the squad will continue to disrupt bikie business with a special squad, called Raptor, set up in 2009 targeting OMCG whenever they can.

They routinely stop known members for vehicle checks, licence checks and just to let them know they are being watched.

“We also have a strategy in place to close down their club houses by any means we can. We will get other government agencies in to breach them for fire regulations, building codes – anything that is available to us we will use.

Wallace says making it hard for bikies to meet takes away a lot of their power. “They exist as a group. If we stop them meeting at gyms, cafes or anywhere else it makes it hard for them to do business.’’

Supt Wallace’s transfer to the squad is part of a major reshuffling of the state’s crime commanders announced two weeks ago.

Supt Wallace said she will initially spend time on the street.

“It is the best way to know what is going on and what the officers in the field are up against,’’ she said.

A-G TAKES BIKIE LAWS DISPUTE TO HIGH COURT Mark Morri

THE High Court will today hear an application by the NSW Attorney-General Greg Smith to bypass the Court of Appeal after bikies launched a legal challenge against new consorting laws.

Tough new anti-consorting laws aimed at cracking down on bikies similar to those introduced in Queensland were passed by the O’Farrell government last November after a number of public shootings.

The government and the police want the matter resolved after two Nomads and another man challenged the new laws after being charged with consorting. Lawyers representing Nomads boss Sleiman Tajjour and fellow bikie Justin Hawthorne, who are challenging the laws in the Court of Appeals, support the High Court application.

Lawyers for Charlie Foster, an intellectually handicapped 21-year-old from Inverell, have also challenged the laws.

The consorting laws impose a penalty of up to three years jail for convicted offenders who continue to consort with other criminals who have been convicted of an indictable offence after receiving an official police warning.

The Attorney-General used his right to seek removal to the High Court under s40 of the Judiciary Act 1903, after receiving legal advice.

Australia's Finest: 100th Victoria Cross awarded to late Digger Corporal Cameron Stewart Baird

100th Victoria Cross awarded to late Digger Corporal Cameron Stewart Baird

The Daily Telegraph
February 13, 2014 

A DIGGER killed in Afghanistan has been posthumously awarded Australia’s 100th Victoria Cross, which left his father fighting back tears.

Prime Minister Tony Abbott informed Federal Parliament of Corporal Cameron Stewart Baird’s honour, as his family looked on.

“This is a bittersweet day,” Mr Abbott told the Lower House, explaining the honour was for “acts of valour, extreme devotion to duty and ultimate self-sacrifice”.

Corporal Baird died in Afghanistan on June 22 last year.

He was the 40th digger to die in the conflict.

FALLEN SOLDIER CORPORAL BAIRD HAD COURAGE THAT CANNOT BE TAUGHT

Mr Abbott said Baird was an iconic figure in the army, and had already received the medal of gallantry.

He is being awarded the cross for most conspicuous acts of valour, extreme devotion to duty and ultimate self sacrifice in Afghanistan as a commando team leader.

Mr Abbott said Corporal Baird joined the army at 18 and was eventually posted to what is now the 2nd Commando Regiment.
He served in East Timor, Iraq and Afghanistan.

The late Corporal’s brother Brendan said it was a “tremendous honour” to accept the award on his behalf.

“Today is a proud day for the Baird family,” he told reporters.

“Cameron never liked the limelight, he was a very humble man who would not see this as an individual award.”

Brendan thanked the Army and the Defence Force on the family’s behalf.

His father Doug choked back tears as he recited the ‘soldier’s code’ given to his son.

“I had the honour to be a soldier in the Australian army,” he read, before being comforted by his wife Kaye.

“At all times I act in ways that will bring honour to Australia, credit upon the army, my unit and my fellow soldiers,” he went on.

“I think that sums Cameron up.”

IN PICTURES: DIGGERS KILLED IN AFGHANISTAN

Mr Abbott said Corporal Baird was the 40th Australian soldier killed in Afghanistan.

“And, please God, the last,” he said.

“He was on his fifth special forces tour when he was killed in the action for which he was awarded the Victoria Cross.”

Addressing Corporal Baird’s family members in the public gallery, he said: “You have lost a son, a brother, an uncle and our country has lost a citizen, a soldier, a hero.”

Mr Abbott recalled the day Corporal Baird died, telling how he and his team came under heavy fire on three separate occasions “from well prepared enemy positions”.

“Corporal Baird charged enemy positions and neutralised them with grenade and rifle fire,” he said.

“By drawing fire on himself repeatedly he enabled other members of his team to regain the initiative.”

Mr Abbott then explained how the Commando then led an assault on an enemy-led compound, forcing the door of the building before being killed.

“Words can hardly do justice to the chaos, confusion and courage which were evident that day,” he said.

“He repeatedly drew enemy fire away from his team members and charged enemy positions under heavy fire,” Mr Abbott said.

“His actions enabled the enemy to be neutralised and his team to be kept safe.

“This award is in recognition of his most conspicuous acts of valour, extreme devotion to duty and ultimate self-sacrifice.

“The Victoria Cross is inscribed with the words “For Valour”.

“Corporal Baird’s actions were in keeping with the finest traditions of the Australian Army and the Australian Defence Force.

“He is an Australian hero.”

Opposition Leader Bill Shorten said it was difficult to convey words that would properly describe Corporal Baird’s acts of heroism.

“I hope his family here feel that our Parliament, all of us here, do some justice to his memory today,” Mr Shorten said.

He said the VC is part of a proud military and Australian tradition, which recognises the courage to sacrifice your own safety for your friends.

“A quality Corporal Baird exemplified to the highest degree,” Mr Shorten added.

Corporal Baird was a member of the Special Operations Task Group and was from the 2nd Commando Regiment based at Holsworthy Barracks in Sydney, New South Wales.

He is survived by his parents, brother and his partner.

Corporal Baird was born in Burnie, Tasmania in 1981. He joined the Army in January 2000 and upon completion of his initial training was posted to the then 4th Battalion (Commando), The Royal Australian Regiment, now the 2nd Commando Regiment, in February 2000.

Corporal Baird was an outstanding Special Forces soldier.

The Defence Department website states: “He exemplified what it meant to be a Commando, living by the attributes of uncompromising spirit and honour, which in turn earned him the unconditional respect of his fellow Commandos. His leadership in action was exemplary, constantly inspiring those around him to achieve greater things.

“Corporal Baird was an extremely dedicated and disciplined soldier, always striving for excellence in everything he did.

“Corporal Baird died how he lived — at the front, giving it his all, without any indecision. He will forever be remembered by his mates and the soldiers he served with in the 2nd Commando Regiment.”

Two wives, but only one law: Iraqi bigamist Younus Taher Jaaz Al Saadi broke all the rules

Ben McClellan and Alicia Wood
The Daily Telegraph
February 14,2014 

AN Iraqi bigamist duped a Sydney woman into marriage to get an Australian visa — then flew to Iraq a month later to marry a second wife, a tribunal has found.

Samira Asswad, a western Sydney grandmother, married Younus Taher Jaaz Al Saadi, 38 in December 2008, after meeting him through neighbours.

After Mr Al Saadi applied for and received a spousal visa in July 2009, he left almost immediately for Iraq when he married a second wife, Nihal Al-Sharmati and had a child with her.

When Ms Al-Sharmati applied for an Australian visa as Mr Al Saadi’s wife, the Department of Immigration notified the Migration Review Tribunal who cancelled his visa.

Mr Al Saadi argued he should be allowed to stay because having two wives was part of his culture.

During their three-year marriage, Mr Al Saadi stayed at Ms Asswad’s townhouse for only a few months in total, telling her he had to constantly return to Iraq for five to six months at a time for “work”.

The tribunal found that Mr Al Saadi separated from Ms Asswad three weeks after he was granted a permanent visa, and divorced her in August 2012.

In the same month he was granted a permanent visa as Ms Asswad’s spouse, his other wife, Ms Al- ­Shamarti, was giving birth to his son.

“I bring him to Australia for me,” Ms Asswad said. “When he get the permanent visa straight away he went from this house.”

The tribunal ruled that Mr Al Saadi’s actions “show deliberate and significant disregard for Australia’s immigration laws”.

“The definition of the ‘spouse’ in the migration legislation is quite unambiguous and requires an exclusive relationship.”

NSW Minister for Women Pru Goward said the case was a reminder of the implications of not abiding by the law.

“Many people want to come to Australia to enjoy our great way of life, and what everybody needs to understand that firstly, we have a strong commitment to the rights of girls and women, and secondly that there is only one law people have to abide by and that’s Australian law,” Ms Goward said.

The Government-assigned Concrete Block Apartments

Canada Free Press
By Dr. Ileana Johnson Paugh  
Monday, January 6, 2014

An American diplomat who flew over communist Romania during Ceausescu’s reign of terror asked the innocent question, where are the farmers and their homes, I see nothing but fields of green everywhere?

The accompanying hosts looked at each other embarrassed and nobody answered the question. It was too un diplomatic and dangerous to explain to this westerner coming from the land of freedom and private property that the farmers’ land had been confiscated, collectivized, and the former owners moved by force to government assigned concrete block apartments ranging in size from 200-400 square feet.

These apartments were located in blocks with 2-4 entrances depending on whether they were five or nine stories high. The five-story buildings did not have elevators; the nine-story buildings had lifts that could safely carry two individuals at a time and were seldom operational. Renters of various ages and physical abilities had the joy of climbing stairs every day.

Social engineers had decided that land was better used in co-operative farms owned by the communist government. Private homes located on farm land were bulldozed and people were moved either in a compact village attached to the collective farm, with little room between single homes, or in the densely populated cities with grey concrete apartments mushrooming overnight.

The communist party elites had decided that having too much private space was bourgeois, the socialist men needed just enough space to eat and sleep, the rest of the time had to be spent at work.

This brings me to the current trend in the U.S. to reduce Americans’ living space to as little as possible by changing zoning laws without their consent, using visioning committees composed of local agreeable supervisors and outside non-governmental organizations (NGOs) with lots of available grant money from HUD and other government agencies.

U.N. Agenda 21  is behind zoning, regionalism, land and water use, Sustainable Development, global warming, wealth redistribution, social engineering, Smart Growth, Green Growth, cap and trade, Smart Grid, Smart Meters, global citizens, IB World schools, Common Core standards, biofuels, the Law of the Sea Treaty (LOST), gun control, just to name a few.

Nationally syndicated talk show hosts have finally started speaking against U.N. Agenda 21 elements. I have connected all the parts in my best-selling book, “U.N. Agenda 21: Environmental Piracy”.

U.N. environmental regionalist Seven50 plans for Florida
A political refuge appealed to the St. Lucie County Commissioners in Florida ()at a meeting about the U.N. environmental regionalist Seven50 plans for Florida. “I do not come here to lose my freedom; I beg you – get out of Seven50. Do not destroy our Freedom.”

A long line of citizens vociferously opposed such regionalism and pleaded with “local elected officials to reject the takeover of Florida’s private property.” “

“I am opposed to Seven50… to the loss of our property rights by U.N. Agenda 21, the new world order communist Marxist project.”

Large grants from HUD and this administration have divided our country into 11 nationwide regions, including the east coast of Florida. The Seven50 Regionalism Plan has already been adopted in the Gore triangle counties south of St. Lucie and Indian River counties. Vero Beach, IRC rejected the plan based on a “vertical authority flow chart” controlled by unelected federal bureaucrats influenced by globalist non-governmental organizations (NGOs) who plan to “stack-and-pack 200-foot dwelling spaces” and move citizens off their private property.

Stack-and-pack living quarters in the 200 square foot aPodments
Suzanne Eovaldi describes the typical stack-and-pack living quarters in the 200 square foot aPodments building in Sammamish, Washington. Resident Judy Green  “shares the kitchen with seven other tenants on the second floor.” To get to her loft cubicle, she must climb six flights of stairs in the absence of elevators. Cars are not allowed on account of global warming. The micro-units are the size of a hotel room and rent for $600-900 per month. The micro-housing units increase the population density of the area tremendously.

The government will impose its best practices of “Sustainable Urbanism” which will force areas to adopt “sustainable development” and “equitable communities,” changing the counties’ desired low density character and scale to high-density crime-ridden slums.

The American Coalition 4 Property Rights explains on its website why the Seven50 Regional Plan must be stopped with its Sustainable Urbanism and the Smart Code solution to urban sprawl. Regionalism will fundamentally alter the make-up of our society and of our property rights or lack thereof.

“Social engineering is on the verge of being imposed on entire neighborhoods, adults, and children alike.” The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) will dismantle local zoning and force people to move into certain areas in order to achieve what they consider “racial, economic, and ethnic diversity.” This is “nationalizing neighborhoods” on a grand scale. This is done for our “own good and to achieve utopia.” By obliterating zoning regulations, we will have neighborhoods by government quota. (Rush Limbaugh monologue, September 12, 2013)

Rush Limbaugh pointed out that “HUD’s power grab is based on the mistaken belief that zoning and discrimination are the same, zoning is disguised discrimination.” Introducing 200 square feet pods between single family homes is “social justice.”

The American Planning Association issued a HUD Smart Growth document, a blueprint of goals to replace single family housing. The 76-page study by APA’s Planning Advisory Service, report number 548, published on July 2007, had the “objective to examine, on a pilot basis, whether zoning impedes the development of higher-density, multifamily housing in growing metropolitan areas.”

The study presumed multifamily housing to be the most affordable type of housing yet it did not evaluate this presumption in the study. “High-density residential development is not always affordable, and low density development is not always costly. Ample high-density and multi-family zoning is neither necessary nor sufficient to produce affordable housing.”(p. iv) Why then destroy suburbia and why dictate to other people how they should live?

The authors identified other factors besides zoning that can limit multifamily housing stock such as market conditions, land availability, parcelization, provision of public services, planning goals such as protecting open spaces or rural areas, and existing land-use patterns.

The APA study recommends:

Support the Regional collection and integration of land use regulatory data (maintain comprehensive data on zoning and other regulatory restraints)
Encourage state and Regional governments to provide oversight of local land-use policies.
Focus state and Regional oversight policies on quantitative performance measures.
Continue to develop better measures of zoning barriers and support additional research on the effects of barriers on housing markets.
For these authors, “the critical question now is not whether regulatory barriers to affordable housing exist in some communities, but whether it is possible to identify such communities and craft an appropriate policy response.”

In my December 23, 2013 interview with Brian Lilley of Sun News Network in Canada, I explained the “affordable housing” fight in Fairfax County, Virginia, where almost all members of the Board of Supervisors and the Planning Commission are crafting a plan to place Lilliputian slum dwellings in every area of the county. These are called Residential Studio Units (RSUs) with a total surface of 220-320 square feet. Each high-rise would contain 75 such units and one parking space per unit. Such units would reduce property values, change neighborhoods, increase population density, cause more traffic congestion, and increase crime in the name of “affordable housing” for the poor, low wage workers, and “diversity.”
