Sky news are running this today:
Eleanor Williams: The teenager who faked a grooming scandal also named real abusers..
"
For the first time, Sky News is revealing extracts of a diary Eleanor kept in the run-up to her notorious Facebook post. And while her diary, which catalogues abuse by controlling men, may be another work of fiction, somehow within it, the girl famed for lying identifies a man who has been convicted of similar crimes.
"It's hard," she writes, that people think of her as a "liar" and "evil and a druggy".
"I wish I could explain everything but what's the point when they just say I'm lying," she adds."
"
A key character in Eleanor's diary is the man now convicted of 40 counts of child abuse, Shah Joman Miah - Sarj.
The diary is dated from late 2019 to early 2020. In it, Sarj is frequently named as part of a controlling network of men. In the extracts below, we've replaced the names of other men with Z.
"Monday 21 October 2019... Had Snapchats from Z saying Sarj needs me in Blackburn tomorrow, said I had to get the train to Preston because they didn't know for definite where Sarj wanted me."
She also worries about Sarj being "pissed off" with her and references him being at so-called "parties" where men take money after she "goes with" certain people."
