Ahmadi Religion of Peace and Light

The Ahmadi Religion of Peace and Light (AROPL) is a religious sect based in Cheshire that blends tenets of Islam with conspiracy theories about the Illuminati, aliens, and other topics. The group's leader, Abdullah Hashem, claims to have the ability to cure various ailments. Recently, police raided AROPL's headquarters following an investigation into allegations of serious sexual offences, modern slavery, and forced marriage, resulting in nine arrests. The Home Office is also investigating a company linked to AROPL over its use of immigration visas. These developments highlight concerns about the group's activities and their potential impact on vulnerable individuals, making them newsworthy right now.
