Rotherham Muslims call for boycott of South Yorkshire Police over 'demonization' since Jay report 'There is a perception in the minds of many ordinary people that all Muslims are now potential child abusers,' say the Muslim Community of Rotherham
A Muslim group in Yorkshire has called on a town's Islamic groups and institutions to boycott South Yorkshire Police over claims the force have "scapegoated" them.
The call to boycott, issued by the Muslim Community of Rotherham, claims that since the publication of the Alexis Jay report last year, South Yorkshire Police has "deflected their own failures" by targetting Muslims in the area.
The group has also said that any Muslim institution that doesn't abide by the boycott will in turn by boycotted.
