Islam21c feature on BBC Radio 4 on Terrorism, Extremism and the Law

By Editor 12 Jm1 39 ◦︎ 29 Jan 18

Islam21c Chief Editor Dr Salman Butt was part of BBC Radio 4’s programme, Law in Action, speaking about the mounting community pressure against the government’s counter-terrorism and counter-‘extremism’ strategy. Also on the programme was the architect of Prevent, former GCHQ director Sir David Omand criticising what Prevent has become, along with an extended interview with David Anderson QC – the Independent Reviewer of Terrorism Legislation.


The programme also made mention of the case of Imam Shakeel Begg being accused of being an ‘extremist’ and ‘promoting violence’. For more information read the following:
