Tulip
Laptop From Hell
The General Secretary of one of Blackburn’s biggest mosques has been suspended after being arrested on Thursday morning after allegedly trying to meet a 15-year-old boy for xes.
Mufti Ashraf Sidat, 45, of Masjid-e-Noorul Islam, was apprehended in a sting operation in Flixton, Manchester, by what appeared to be vigilante paedophile hunters.
Police arrested him shortly afterwards and he has since been released on bail until February 9.
Greater Manchester Police said in a statement: “At around 9.50am on Thursday 11 January 2018 police were called to Roedean Gardens in Flixton to a report of child grooming. Officers attended and a 45-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of inciting a child to engage in xesual activity. He has been bailed until 9 February 2018 pending further enquiries.”
Sidat, who is married with 5 children, remains silent throughout most of the encounter.
