Following demonstrations in London at which a number of slogans and placards were on display calling for the “massacre”of “those that insult Islam”, the police started to come under pressure to explain why no-one was arrested even though the demonstrators were clearly inciting violence.

Now they’ve arrested a 23-year old man.

The man was arrested, at a north London address, under suspicion of soliciting to murder, Scotland Yard confirmed.

…

A number of other arrests, in relation to the same protest, have also been made by police.

Uman Javed, 26, was charged with soliciting murder and remanded in custody when he appeared at Bow Street magistrates court in London on March 16.

The married father-of-one, from Birmingham, was also charged with using words likely to stir up racial hatred and will appear again at the Old Bailey on April 7.

Abdul Rahman Saleem, 31, from east London, has been charged with using words likely to stir up racial hatred.

Meanwhile, Omar Zaheer, 26, from Southall, west London, was charged with racially aggravated disorderly behaviour and disorderly behaviour.
