He was among hundreds of young Muslims who gathered outside Harrow Central Mosque in North-West London, to 'defend' it against a planned joint protest by the English Defence League and Stop the Islamisation of Europe group.

Officers were pelted with bricks, bottles and fireworks. There were ten arrests.
