A British Muslim man detained by Anti-Terrorist Police in London was terrorised despite making NO attempt to resist arrest. Police forced him to prostrate with his arms in cuffs and taunted him by saying, "Where is your God now?"
The detainee, after being kicked and punched all over his body, suffered over 40 injuries including urinary bleeding, a black eye and severe bruising. (London December 2003)
544 arrested under Terrorism Act 2000 in Britain between 11 September attacks and 31 January
Only 98 were charged under it (Home Office Statistics)
Of those, less than 5 have been convicted
Of those, less than 5 have been convicted
17 foreign nationals have been held without charge under emergency powers granted in 2001
Their only crime was that they were practicising their religion
Community groups describe this as "racial profiling," i.e. considering somebody suspicious because of their style of dress
Many being arrested then released without charge is evidence of "fishing expeditions" by the Police. And what is the result? 450+ Muslims harassed, abused, loss of jobs, trauma and to date, NO apology or compensation
This hatred and attack is not only against individuals, it is against our Civil Liberties.
Remember their words...
