Race Hate Charges Against UK Cartoon Jihadis
The hate charges are surprising because countries with those crazy laws, usually only apply them against whites. The other surprise is that nobody else published this story.
Four men charged with race hate crimes, including soliciting murder, following a demonstration against anti-Islamic cartoons are to be tried separately. The four pleaded not guilty to the offences at the Old Bailey. The charges follow a central London demonstration on February 3 in protest against cartoons published in Denmark satirising the prophet Mohammed.
Abdul Muhid, 23, of Stoke Newington, north London, pleaded not guilty to two offences of soliciting the murder of those who insulted the Muslim faith. Umran Javed, 26, of Birmingham, and Mizanur Rahman, 22, of Palmers Green, north London, denied soliciting murder and using threatening words or behaviour to stir up race hate. Abdul Saleem, 31, of Poplar, east London, denied one charge of using threatening words and behaviour to stir up race hate.
All except Muhid were remanded on bail to a date to be fixed.
