Press Release Dated 23rd October 2001

Assault on Muslims by British police

Anti-Islam and Muslim paranoia whipped up by the governments of the US
and UK led this morning to the arrest and detention of Yasser Sirri of
the Islamic Observatory Centre (OIC).  Despite being in constant
communication with him and having had all their queries answered, the
special branch and MI5 still saw fit to raid Mr Sirri’s house at 7:00am
this morning, in the presence of his wife and children.  The Muslim
community is not unfamiliar with such tactics and intimidation from the
constabulary.  On the one hand the British government have stressed that
they are making ‘efforts to track down and arrest suspected activists
linked to the al-Qaeda network’, however in reality this has become a
cover in the past month to arrest and intimidate over 1000 Muslims and
Islamic activists in what is obviously a witch hunt intended to put fear
into the hearts of an already tense Muslim community. 

For those of us who know Mr Sirri, we can testify that he has been
living in Britain as a political refugee.  Mr Sirri’s English is poor,
he spends most of his time defending human rights abuses and he is in no
way involved with any terrorist activities.  There is therefore no
justification whatsoever for him to be detained under the Terrorism Act
2000. 

We therefore call upon Muslims to support their Muslim brother in this
time of need.  We call upon the British Government to release Mr Sirri
immediately, to compensate him for his wrongful arrest and stop bullying
Muslims here and abroad. 

Moreover we call upon all Muslims to be vigilant at this time and to put
pressure on the authorities to release all those wrongfully held in
custody and to demonstrate if they are not released forthwith.
