It looks like if you are a Muslim police officer , you necessarily have to condemn that vapour called "Islamophobia" and that too emanating from his own department. Curiously, when BBC reports it, , it said in a PC language "An asian police officer" and in the webste ; 'Asian' is deliberate fudge langauge to hide Muslim crimes; when it is a positive achievemnt, it becomes Muslim, when it is a crime and violence, it becomes 'Asian'. Be that as may, this is the report

The UK's highest-ranking Asian police officer has called for an independent judicial inquiry into radicalisation of young Muslims after the 7 July bombs.

Met Police Assistant Commissioner Tarique Ghaffur said Islamophobia made some Muslims vulnerable to extremism.

Tighter anti-terror laws had indirectly discriminated against Muslims, he told the National Black Police Association.

If a high ranking Muslim police officer is convinced , anti-terorism laws are anti-Muslim, what commitment can we expect from him to carry out anti-terror legislation energetically?
