August 2015. Anjem Choudary is a British Muslim activist. He was previously a solicitor and served as the chairman of the Society of Muslim Lawyers. He helped form an Islamist organisation, al-Muhajiroun. The group organised several anti-Western demonstrations before being banned. He praised those responsible for the 9/11 and 7/7 attacks. He supports the implementation of Sharia law throughout the UK. He receives little support from mainstream UK Muslims and has been largely criticised in the country’s media. How can such an educated man have such extremist views? He’s presently defending himself in the UK Courts.
