It could be both. It could be that the media had everyone worked up into a fever pitch of paedohysteria so that everyone was looking for a paedo somewhere, and then they projected their fears unto someone in their environment who was different from them, who for the same reason, was already being persecuted for his difference.

I don't think they were vigilantes but abusers who had been harassing him over his race/disability and took it to the next level, using suspected paedophilia as an excuse. In a similar way as racists in the American South used to accuse black men of raping white women as an excuse to lynch them. A family statement, said: "It should not be forgotten that Bijan had been the victim of hate crimes for a number of years before his death, both due to his race and his physical disability. www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-bristol-24724534
It would be convenient for the authorities to go along with the anti-paedo vigilante idea, as they could avoid having to admit they had race/disability hate crime on their hands.

Police Officers are being held to account for this sickening murder which was hushed up for three months by the media. in the lead up to the Michael Le Velle trial. Again the police seem to be covertly supporting vigilantes.
