Police have raided the headquarters of the Ahmadi Religion of Peace and Light following an investigation into allegations of serious sexual offences, modern slavery and forced marriage. About 500 officers drawn from across the north-west of England were on the ground on Wednesday morning. The police confirmed four men and two women were arrested and were being held in custody. The officers had warrants to enter the group’s headquarters, which is based at a former orphanage, as well as other properties in Crewe, Cheshire. The arrests come after Cheshire police were alerted in March about a woman, now based in the Republic of Ireland, who had made a complaint of being raped and sexually abused at AROPL’s headquarters. The force said the alleged offences took place in 2023 and involved the woman, who was a member of the group at the time.
