Lord Ahmed Victim Calls for Peer to Lose Title - BBC Newsnight (Short)

MWNTV

A victim of convicted sex offender Lord Ahmed of Rotherham has demanded the government strip him of his title. The former Labour peer was found guilty in January of a serious sexual assault against a boy and the attempted rape of a young girl in the 1970s.

Only an Act of Parliament can remove his title, but none currently exists.

"That title is bestowed upon people that have got some honour, some dignity, and he's got none of that," the male victim told BBC Newsnight.

MWNUK Co-Chair, Shaista Gohir OBE, speaks with BBC Newsnight reporter Yasminara Khan in response to these allegations and demand the government to strip Nazir Ahmed of his title.
