Edinburgh City Council paid Edinburgh Rape Crisis Centre £76,452 to employ a man as CEO.
Mridul Wadhwa took a job intended - and protected by law - to be filled by a woman.
You’d expect the local paper to be all over this. You’d be wrong.

This happened when I questioned Brighton Council about same sex trauma support. I wonder what their reaction will be to the Edinburgh Rape Crisis Centre tribunal result. So far my request for an answer has been ignored.

Mridul Wadhwa, a trans-identifying man and CEO of Edinburgh Rape Crisis Centre, takes counselling sessions with women who've been sexually assaulted. I gotcha. opendemocracy.net/en/5050/trans-…

To be fair to LAS, they've done the first two and are doing the third, and their chair has stepped down, all within 24 hours. Edinburgh Rape Crisis Centre and Rape Crisis Scotland could learn a thing or two.

As far as we know, Mridul Wadhwa is still CEO of Edinburgh Rape Crisis Centre, and there’s been no apology to Roz Adams

A full review of the entire Rape Crisis network is needed and not just the Centre in Edinburgh

End.

So still not hearing that Mridul Wadhwa has resigned or been sacked what is Edinburgh Rape Crisis Centre waiting on? #MridulMustGo

Also Maggie Chapman MSP is very quiet she should be resigning as MSP as she is part of this.

'It is staggering that a man who put his ideology ahead of caring for women emerging from appalling ordeals was ever appointed to what was supposed to be a job for a woman'. We wish more politicians were calling for services women can use.

Mridul Wadhwa not having a Gender Recognition Certificate is a political stance. Right from the get-go, Edinburgh Rape Crisis Centre bolstered that position, also political. I bet they were slapping each other on the back at their unimpeachable inclusiveness. Women suffered.

Not a word of contrition or accountability. No mention of the woman put through three years of severe stress and unwarranted investigation. No mention of rape survivors who self-excluded from their service. For whom are they 'saddened' - the persecutors? ercc.scot/statement-from…

Edinburgh rape crisis centre closes waiting list with huge backlog in funding row

Very happy to have been able to discuss Adams v Edinburgh Rape Crisis Centre with Maya Forstater and Andrew Doyle this evening:

JKR set up a free rape crisis centre for women.
Women only.
Edinburgh Rape Crisis Centre, headed by a larping man, refuses to refer any raped woman to Beira's Place.
'In the face of it', does Mridul Wadhwa's decision seem like a 'laudable gesture'?

Edinburgh RapeCrisis

An excellent piece by Sue Webber Scottish Conservatives. Wadhwa also wanted to stop rape victims from requesting intimate examinations be performed by someone of their own sex.

Edinburgh Rape Crisis Centre Chief Executive Officer job advertised
Only women need apply

Will you continue to ignore John Swinney the harm being done at Edinburgh Rape Crisis Centre by the man who lied to get access to vulnerable women?
Have you any decency left?

It's shocking what's going on at the Edinburgh Rape Crisis Centre.
