On his way to Hong Kong apparently

 

Gary Glitter was on a flight to Hong Kong this afternoon after a Home Office blunder left him free to travel the world.

 

The convicted paedophile had been due to fly to Heathrow this morning.

 

But he refused to get on the jet and remained at Bangkok airport while Thai officials tried to persuade him to leave.

 

Eventually he caught a flight to Hong Kong. His move is likely to provoke a diplomatic incident with China during the Olympic Games.

 

Glitter, 64, was free to travel because the Home Office issued him with a new passport in November while he was in a Vietnamese jail for abusing two girls aged 11 and 12.

 

It means he can travel to any country that will have him. Without it he would have had to go straight back to Britain where he would be strictly monitored.

He needed the passport to be able to get back to the UK. I hope that Hong Kong will expel him quickfast.

 

He's talking about reviving his career. He always was shite. Don't think he's going to sell many records, and his teenie bopper market is going to be limited.

For all of those so upset about child porn and the such, take a cold, hard look at the porn in Japan.

 

The majority of clientle for the Bangcock brothels are asian, and a huge amount of those are Japanese.

 

Take a look at all the child-porn comic books. Or better yet, the rape stuff. Hell, there is even a comic book protagonist called 'Rapeman'.

 

If you want to bitch about how awful GG is fine, but the society that many of us here live in is pretty lax about rape and paedophilia.

Is that so Oyuki? (Not a challenge, it's a question). I know about the "company tours" to Bancock (soubriquette's cake ladies don't bother with these) but where are these books on sale?

 

GG deserves life in prison for musical crimes, let alone his paedophilia.

The whole extradiction of a convicted sex criminal is a problematic issue really isn't it?

 

Own country/country of origin is really the place they need to go back to - but really does anyone WANT them? NO!

 

I also hope he gets turned around at HK airport, and any other countries immigration he rocks up to! With the obvious exception of his home country - who need to whack him on a sex offender register a quick as humanly possible!

Glitter refused entry to Hong Kong(08-21 03:41)

Disgraced British glam rocker Gary Glitter has been refused entry to Hong Kong after arriving from Thailand where he was also barred, a British foreign ministry spokesman said.

 

When asked what would happen to the 64-year-old Briton, released this week after serving nearly three years in a Vietnam prison for child sex abuse, the spokesman replied: ''It's a matter for the Chinese authorities.''

 

Glitter, whose real name is Paul Gadd, was allowed to board a Thai Airways flight to Hong Kong even though immigration police at Bangkok airport said he would be deported to London ''as soon as possible.''

 

Having been booted out of Vietnam on Tuesday at the end of his sentence, police said Glitter feigned ear and heart problems in Bangkok to miss a connecting flight to London, apparently fear

Gary Glitter faces deportation back to Thailand(41 mins ago)

Gary Glitter, a British former ``glam-rock'' star, will be deported back to Thailand, Hong Kong immigration officials said after denying the convicted pedophile entry late Wednesday.

 

Glitter, who was deported from Vietnam two days ago after being released from prison, is refusing to return to the UK.

 

He spent more than 12 hours in transit at Bangkok international airport after failing to catch a connecting flight to London, before flying to Hong Kong.

 

Glitter, 64, whose real name is Paul Francis Gadd, is at Hong Kong airport waiting to be deported to his last port, an immigration officer said.

 

The former rocker served a 33-month prison term in Vietnam for sexually abusing two girls, aged 11 and 12.

last time i picked one up (by accident, i thought it was a harmless normal Japanese porn comic) was a couple of years back. It was on a stand of second-hand comics about 2 meters away from the register, in full view of children at a large used book and CD store.

I am sure they haven't dissapeared since then, and i guess a nosing through any porno shop will bring up many, many types of porn that might be consitered criminal in the west. A google search will probably do the same.

I have also seen what appeared to be rape porn on a Japanese guy's computer once. It looked real, shaky hand-held camera as they drove by and abducted a girl from the side of the road. It nauseated me, although it could possibly be filmed to look as if it was real.

I have seen a fair bit of J-porn, more than i like to admit to, and there is a strong undercurrent of male domination and violence running through much, if not most of it.

I think the reason he did not want to go back to the UK is that he will be far from a "free" man.

 

I believe the UK will have him on a registered sex offenders list and his location will be known at all times - which means he will be 'kept and eye on', locals will likely be informed/discover he moved into the area (can you spell vigilante?), and any time there is an incident of kiddy interference in the area they will come a-knocking on his door and want to make sure he was not the one.

 

Just as it should be.

 

Some prefer to see these sicko's chemically castrated after release, but the reality is that they can still go on offending in that state and people are lulled into a false sense of security. Vigilance. The only solution.

I don't think locals are informed in the UK tbh MB. He will be placed on the sex offenders list but as I recall I think his reluctance to return may be to do with some legislation that was trying to be pushed thru (dunno if it ever did tho) that stated that upon return to the UK, UK nationals can be tried again in UK law for the crime that was committed abroad. So he may be looking at another court case....this isn't gospel however.

 

I wouldn't put too much faith in the UK Justice system, sure he's on the register but "being kept an eye on" is a loose term. A convicted paedophile and rapist absconded from a open prison a few months back and made it all the way to France before being caught again this week.

Great!!! shifty

 

Most of the time the locals are not informed, but FOI usually means that those who are ACTIVE in trying to make sure these guys are KNOWN about in thier area and not put next to a school or whatever FIND OUT - and then the info is OUT.

 

I had contact in a professional capacity with a registered offender here in WA, and they had to move a number of times because his whereabouts kept being leaked, and his location being picketted. I had very little sympathy.

Reported by the ABC today:

Quote:
The flamboyant showman is to be immediately interviewed by the police and is required to sign Britain's sex offenders' register within three days. The disgraced star will have to tell police where he intends to live and notify them if he moves. He could also face an order prohibiting him from going near children or using the internet.

 

He will also be monitored by police and the probation service under the Multi Agency Public Protection Arrangements (MAPPA) system. The police could apply for a foreign travel order banning him from travelling to certain countries or leaving Britain at all, if they feel they have enough evidence to put before a court, but he could appeal.

 

Glitter is on the highest level of MAPPA, meaning a case worker will see him shortly for an assessment. He faces weekly visits and a high level of surveillance. Should there be any concerns about his behaviour, further action could be taken against him.

 

Lets hope so, eh?
