The media reported on the plans of the London police to review 9,000 cases of pedophilia.

London police will review 9,000 cases of pedophilia after a scandal with London Mayor Sadiq Khan about the concealment of the activities of gangs of pedophiles. This was reported on October 24 by the Daily Express newspaper, citing law enforcement officials.

"The Metropolitan Police is reviewing 9,000 cases as part of a new large—scale investigation into child molestation gangs, despite London Mayor Sadiq Khan's previous denial that such gangs operate in the capital," the newspaper said.

A London police spokesman said the cases would be reviewed over a 15-year period.

The Daily Express reported on October 20 that Sadiq Khan knew about the activity of pedophile gangs in London, but deliberately kept silent about it in public. It was clarified that the first reports of pedophile gangs in the UK began to arrive in the early 2000s.
