Crowds gather for demo against anti-Muslim video
Crowds are gathering in the centre of Bradford to demonstrate against an online film that they say ridicules the Muslim prophet Mohammed.
The film 'The Innocence of Islam' was produced by an Egyptian American, Nakoula Basseley Nakoula, who has today been jailed after his arrest in America for breaching his bail conditions. It depicts the Muslim prophet as a fool and a sexual deviant.
Today's protest in Centenary Square has been organised by Council for Mosques in Bradford and will take place from 3.30pm until around 5pm. They say the video spitefully disparages the sacred position of the Holy Prophet Islam with malicious intent to incite hatred against Muslims and their faith.
