Inayat Bunglawala arrested

The Mail reports that

"A Muslim who advised the Government following the July 7 London bombings has been arrested after an alleged stabbing.

Inayat Bunglawala, 39, was held on suspicion of attacking another man at his £300,000 home.

Mr Bunglawala, who also briefed former Security Minister Tony McNulty on the threat posed by Islamic radicals in the UK, was arrested two weeks before Christmas last year.

The identity of the alleged victim is unknown and it is not clear what circumstances led to the alleged attack in the early hours of December 13 last year.

Mr Bunglawala has been released on bail while the Crown Prosecution Service considers bringing charges."

I have reported on Inayat Bunglawala and the Muslim Council of Britain before and no doubt will have to do so again. So I was intrigued to read in the same Mail article that:

"In his final years as Prime Minister, Tony Blair came to distrust the organisation amid claims it was linked to Islamic extremism. But the MCB has enjoyed a renaissance under Gordon Brown and briefed Counter-Terrorism Minister Bill Rammell on community tensions last week. MCB representatives also advised Foreign Secretary David Miliband during last year’s Israel-Gaza War."

The MCB in the UK and CAIR in the USA need very very careful monitoring.


UPDATE:
On March 17, 2009, the Crown Prosecution Service said they would not take any action against Bunglawala.
