Reported in Bruce Gerencser's blog in his series Black Collar Crimes. Gerencser was an Independent Fundamentalist Baptist minister for yrs, but he left Christianity some yrs ago.
His series on sexual predator ministers is depressing.
Per Gerencser, the charges are major news in Oxford and Europe. Ramadan's grandfather was the/a founder of the Muslim Brotherhood.
The women say they were encouraged by women going public about their attacks.

(12,858 posts)I found the link a bit hard to follow because the info is so new to me. Will read again. Right now I feel like I've come into a movie 3/4 of the way through.
Again, thank you for the link and info.
As a note: The info about Tariq's and his brother's opinion regarding the necessity of stoning 'bad' women is appalling.
Also, the info about who supports Tariq at Oxford is info Gerencser's note didn't have. G's purpose in his series is to try to make those still in religion see their revered leaders' clay of feet. His near daily additions trace a wall of shame.
