Those comments from the tennis club who later employed him are utterly shameful.MrEd wrote: Thu Aug 09, 2018 5:38 pm This is the Daily Mail report.

They call it association. Its the one hour a day they aren't banged up.
I would think that upon conviction, Mr Karim would be put in with all the other cons at the local prison (rather than being unconvicted and on remand with certain privileges). As a convicted but unsentenced prisoner, and he would have the same association rights as the others, there are no pending cases (AFAIK) to be a reason to keep them apart. As 'nonces', they are probably kept with others of the same proven inclination, and as they know each other, them spending time together isn't going to breach any Prison rules and perhaps if cellmates they are unlikely to attack each other, and would save some other unfortunate the joy of their company.Why was he given the chance to talk to Husband in jail?
A narcissist without any guilt or remorse who can charm and manipulate and who right up until the very last will try and discredit the very people whose lives he has already destroyed.VerisonaLaw wrote: Thu Aug 09, 2018 10:51 pm The first three counts were concurrent at seven years. Four given one year concurrent to run consecutively and the remainder given two years concurrent to run consecutively totalling the ten.
He didn't show a reaction when the sentence was handed down and throughout showed little emotion even when the VPS were read out (two were read out). There was no remorse shown and this was noted by the Judge.
Karim did however 'shed a tear' when his four character witnesses were called to give evidence. They were all attributed to Queens Club. They made some very odd comments regarding the risk (or lack thereof) that he posed notwithstanding their awareness of his convictions.
The SHPO was required as Karim during his time at the school was undeterred by clear instructions on pupil teacher boundary and despite his lack of offending in more recent years all bases needed to be covered for instance the oppurtunity to work on a charitable basis. The only contact he is allowed with under 18s is accidental or with prior authority of parents or guardians with full disclosure. He of course has to last 5 years in her majestys pleasure until such point as he may be eligible for release.
I have a feeling he may find himself on the Isle of Wight...
I am still somewhat shocked but sadly not surprised that despite two independent disclosures he was allowed to remain in a post with uninterrupted access to girls for a further three years when he posed such a risk.
Hope this info is of use.
Was Queens defending him or just 4 members at a very large club, who had befriended a man that behaved differently from his younger self many years before at CH?Why on earth are Queens Club still defending him?
