Islamic preacher shouts 'Allahu Akbar' in police officer's face


An extraordinary standoff between a policeman and a man preaching Islam in the street has been captured on camera.
During the tense confrontation, which goes on for several minutes, the highly agitated man screams "Allahu Akhbar" in the officer's face.



A crowd gathers as the situation becomes increasingly tense but the Pc eventually tells them the man has "the right to assembly, to stand here and shout and offend."

But he adds: "If his actions go beyond that and he commits a public order offence, then he will be arrested."

As the officer then leaves, the crowd jeers and the man shouts "racist".

The incident in Birmingham city centre appears to have been sparked by an unknown complaint having been made against the man who is wearing traditional Islamic dress.

He shouts: "Freedom of speech, we're not gonna take your racism any more.

"We're not terrorists, we're not suicide bombers, throw your television in the dustbin!

"This is a free country and we can speak freely in public."

Mirror Online has contacted West Midlands Police for a comment.
