A grooming gang victim has revealed police knew she was being trafficked around the country to be raped by more than 100 men, but arrested her instead. She claims police officers in Halifax, West Yorkshire, arrested her after she had been pumped full of drugs by her rapists. The woman, originally from Halifax, told the Sunday Mirror: 'I was arrested around five times in total, but nothing ever seemed to happen to the men who were abusing me.' A review found there had been recurring failings to save her from the grooming gang, resulting in her suing Calder­dale Council. Nine abusers from a grooming gang based in Rochdale were imprisoned in 2012 at Liverpool Crown Court.
