One of the dubious Indian journalist (who is above 70 years old) was caught (and on camera) soliciting sex for a minor and luring her into meeting him. It made a big news and I almost assumed the guy would be done for good. Turn out not only the guy got out quietly but continues to write in newspapers preaching morality to others. I tried a lot of figure out how he might have escaped the law but I cant. I am giving this example only to show that when the British government cant enforce existing laws using available evidence, you cant expect them to dig up anything new with more powers. It is something Mahatma Gandhi pointed out years ago about the British. In one of this Satyagrahas related to Champaran farmers, Gandhiji's modest and only demand was that the British must only acknowledge that there is a problem which needs to be solved. According to Gandhiji's colonial power's unwillingness to even show empathy to people means they are essentially uninterested in the helping people with their problems. Law of Karma I guess.

So you are assuming that he "escaped the law" without having found any evidence. The articles I've found indicates that a bail amount was set. He probably met it, pending trial. Unless you've seen him out and about outside of the UK, you have no basis for assuming he escaped anything.
It's also worth pointing out that he was arrested following a sting by a vigilante group. There's going to be all kinds of issues with chain of custody of the evidence etc. that makes this almost entirely unlike a case handled by police from the start.
