Thank you good to see that justice is being served and that they have been charged with their terrible crimes.

[jno]

... their alleged crimes ...

[Mamyalynne]

Must have been an exhaustive enquiry.

[Jackdaw33]

Now what have the names got in common?

[Rockrose]

I somehow think you are going to enlighten us Jackdaw.
To me it is they are all charged with an alleged crime and we should wait for justice to take its course before adding our twopenneth worth.

[anotheoldgit]

Why have some had the benefit of not having their names revealed?

Why are they any different to the other 19 who have?

[sanmac]

AOG, perhaps legally they are classed as minors. In other words maybe they are some of the "children" who have come over here.

"....we should wait for justice to take its course before adding our twopenneth worth."

Why? Plenty of pennyworths were added when Cliff Richard (and others) have come under suspicion. And it was not simply to do with the BBC's reckless reporting of the raid on his house. Sir Cliff was not even charged. This lot have been.

You know what, Jackdaw, I've studied that list, and I don't see a single Tommy Atkinson, Joe Blogs, or Harry Higgenbottom...Strange innit?

[Togo]

Not children. Their names have been withheld for "legal" (newspeak) reasons. Plus these offences took place between 2005 and 2012.
//Twelve other men, who cannot be named for legal reasons, have also been charged with numerous offences in connection with the same investigation, West Yorkshire police said.//

Maybe they were juveniles at the time of the offences.

[anotheoldgit]

Who's going to tell Tommy Robinson to keep well away?

That shouldn't prevent them from being named, now they are adults.

[Mamyalynne]

Contact a lawyer, how does anyone here know the reason why?

[dannyk13]

Only a suggestion AOG.If you really want to know contact the relevant police force.

how can you be charged with an alleged crime.

[dannyk13]

Rockrose //How can you be charged with an alleged crime//
All crimes are alleged until proved by a court of law.

[sanmac]

To be realistic, AOG, we don't really have to know the actual names do we? It's wouldn't difficult to presume that they will be very minor variations of the general theme.
