British Islamist investigated over remarks on 'Zionists'

An Islamist activist who claimed that the victims of the Grenfell Tower fire in London “were murdered” by Zionists is being investigated by British police, The Telegraph reports.

Nazim Ali, a director of the Islamic Human Rights Commission (IHRC), is accused of exploiting the tragedy during an Al-Quds Day demonstration in the days after the fire.

The Metropolitan Police said it was now investigating allegations of anti-Semitic comments made during the protest, according to The Telegraph.
