"Omid Ali was jailed for 14 years at Oxford Crown Court for subjecting a "vulnerable" teenage girl to repeated abuse and forcing her to have sex with his friends."
"Judge Gordon Risius said the crimes were reported to police in January 2012 but officers did "little or nothing" to follow them up."
"He said because of this lack of action, Ali went on to abuse his victim again in the summer of 2012 and wasn’t arrested until November 2013."
"Chief Constable Sara Thornton last night said the failures were "unacceptable" and an internal investigation has been launched to determine what went wrong."
"Thames Valley Police launched Operation Bullfinch in May 2011 to target men sexually abusing vulnerable young girls in council care."
"After an 18-week trial at the Old Bailey last year seven men were jailed for a total of 95 years."
"The jury were told that the police professional standards department is now looking into this lamentable failure to investigate very serious allegations with the care and attention they warranted."
