The Islamic Human Rights Commission (IHRC) has today, Friday, called on the UK Home Secretary to take immediate action to protect the public from violent protestors claiming to be demonstrating against the government of Iran but are in fact targeting Muslim community institutions and Iranian restaurants and businesses across the UK.
A statement from the IHRC read: “The protestors seem to be following a well-rehearsed script beginning with social media incitement and culminating in physical attacks, often involving weapons, on buildings and persons everywhere they gather.
This also includes intimidating attacks to force Iranian restaurants and businesses to physically show their support for a Loyalist, violent minority by visibly displaying a Loyalist flag on their premises. A recent attack involved the use of Molotov cocktails.”
