‘No Muslim Should Cooperate with the Police’

47

Leading Islamic groups in the US such as terror-tied CAIR say the same thing.

Meet the man trying to bring terror-bride Shamima home: Begum family lawyer has accused Theresa May of ‘having Nazi blood’, said no Muslim should co-operate with police and blamed the security services for ‘creating’ Lee Rigby’s killer

  • Tasnime Akunjee has taken to TV this week to campaign for Begum’s return
  • He has previously suggested British authorities ‘created’ Lee Rigby’s killer
  • The solicitor also said the government’s Prevent strategy was ‘paid-for spying’
  • He has previously worked with a number of extremists including a bomb plotter

By Richard Spillett, Crime Correspondent For Mailonline, 18 February 2019

The lawyer representing jihadi bride Shamima Begum has previously blamed British authorities for ‘creating’ Lee Rigby’s killer, suggested Theresa May has ‘Nazi blood’ for trying to root out extremists and urged Muslims not to cooperate with police.

Tasnime Akunjee first appeared in the public eye when he represented the families of three girls who fled to join ISIS in Syria in 2015.

Following Begum’s reappearance this month as ISIS’s so-called caliphate crumbles, Mr Akunjee has spearheaded a media campaign to get her and her newborn baby repatriated to the UK.

In headline-grabbing soundbites, he has compared her to a shell-shocked First World War soldier and claimed Nazi war criminals were given a fairer hearing than she is.

Tasnime Akunjee, pictured with his wife, has made multiple media appearances in recent days calling for Shamima Begum to be brought back to the UK

Mr Akunjee was previously criticised over controversial views that British authorities ‘created’ Lee Rigby’s killer Michael Adebolajo by ‘making his life so difficult’

Twice married, public school-educated Mr Akunjee, 41, has worked for a series of law firms since 2008, while also working as a legal adviser to the East London Mosque.

It is believed he may have met the families of the runaway Tower Hamlets girls as part of this role.

Mr Akunjee said this morning he is handling the Begum case ‘pro bono’, meaning free of charge. It is unclear whether that would continue if the case came before the British courts in future.

He appeared before a Parliamentary Committee alongside Sahima Begum, Fahmida Aziz and Hussen Abase, family members of the three girls who ran away to join ISIS, in 2015.

But in the wake of the 2015 Parliamentary appearance, it emerged that Mr Akunjee had previously insisted Muslims should not co-operate with the British police because the Government’s Prevent counter-terror policy encouraged ‘straightforward, paid-for spying on the community’.

In an internet rant, he had said: ‘Does she [then Home Secretary Theresa May] have Nazi blood in her veins?’

Mr Akunjee was criticised for his closeness to CAGE, a group which was branded ‘apologists for terror’ after describing ISIS killer Jihadi John as a ‘beautiful young man’.

Like CAGE, he also claimed that the security services ‘created’ Michael Adebolajo — one of the killers Woolwich Fusilier Lee Rigby — by ‘making his life so difficult’.

Mr Akunjee also came under fire after posting a cartoon on his Facebook page showing murdered Charlie Hebdo editor Stephane Charbonnier blowing himself with a suicide vest made of rolled up copies of the magazine. Critics said the cartoon suggested terrorism victims were responsible for attacks.

According to his LinkedIn page, Mr Akunjee, the son of a Bangladeshi doctor, studied at the £18,000-a-year City of London School for Boys, before doing law at the Universities of Sussex and then Westminster.

He joined a solicitors’ firm in London in 2008 and has since moved twice, specialising in terrorism-related cases.

He lives in a Victorian terrace in Tottenham and has previously been pictured with MP and Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn, whose messages he regularly retweets.

Mr Akunjee, who currently works for a firm called Farooq Bajwa & Co based in Mayfair and is consultant for another legal firm in Brentford, has previously represented a number of extremists.

Mr Akunjee now works at a law firm based in this plush office in Mayfair. He also works as a consultant for a Brentford-based firm in west London

According to his website, Mr Akunjee was involved in the case of convert Richard Dart

Mr Akunjee threatened to sue Tommy Robinson over the case of a bullied Syria asylum seeker in Huddersfield (pictured)
What is CAGE?

The London-based organisation claims to be an advocacy group for ‘victims of the War on Terror’, but has been accused of apologising for terrorism.

Most notoriously, its director Asim Qureshi defended Mohammed Emwazi as a ‘beautiful young man’ shortly after he was identified as the ISIS executioner Jihadi John.

A Daily Mail investigation in 2016 found it had been targeting young Muslims with campus speeches, which included calls for students to sabotage the government’s anti-terror strategy Prevent.

According to his website, in 2013 and 2014, he worked on the case of Nabeel Hussain, a convicted bomb plotter, who was caught trying to get to Syria after his release from prison.

His website states he was also involved in the case of Richard Dart, an Islamic convert who sought training in Pakistan and discussed plans to attack Royal Wootton Bassett, the town soldiers killed in Afghanistan were repatriated.

Mr Akunjee was back in the spotlight recently when he launched plans to sue Facebook and anti-Islam campaigner Tommy Robinson after a video emerged of a refugee boy being ‘waterboarded’ by a bully at a school in Huddersfield.

In an online rant, Robinson had alleged the Syrian boy, who is called Jamal, had earlier joined in an attack on a white girl at the school.

But his incendiary claims were immediately challenged by others online, who posted messages in which the girl’s mother denied Jamal was involved.

Mr Akunjee launched a campaign to sue Robinson and Facebook over Robinson’s comments.

His views echoed those of CAGE (pictured), who said Jihadi John was a ‘beautiful young man’

The guy is a brave soul; where is this guy challenging the Democratic-Fascists and its ally Islam? I would like to know if he is still breathing or doing time in a Guantanamo Bay-like prison. After all, the acceptance, mandating of Sharia Law is a given when the Democrats steal the next election.

War is coming. We should move and make pre-emptive strikes against the islam invaders already in the US. Seize and close all mosques and ‘community centers’. Then round up all of the muslims and hold them indefinitely in FEMA internment camps until they can be permanently deported. Several regional airports could be secured and defended for the duration of the 24/7 parade of aircraft, returning the infected evil garbage to a muslim country. To win the global war against islam, the US, China and Russia will need to team up, and destroy all things muslim/islam.

If we don’t, they will hit us harder than 9/11. You are right. If the Muslims were to hit us first, the Democrats, if in power, would wave the flag of ISIS; if they haven’t already.

For Muhammadists the real police is the Sharia terror police modeled after unjust Muhammad.
Unjust Muhammad commanded to “kill the unbelievers wherever you can find them”, said his Messiah would return when trees & stones would lure Muhammadists to unjustly murder Jews, commanded to kill atheists, declared Africans slaves, commanded to burn people that didn’t attend prayers, crucified critics, commanded to kill people in their sleep, commanded the forcible lifelong torture of declitorization of girls, forced theism on anyone, said that who doesn’t join the Ramadan-fast “is not a Muslim. He can be killed.”, said that parents can kill their children, because they’re their parents, raped, tortured, said Non-muhammadists can be eaten, commanded to beat children, promoted inbreeding, declared war on atheists, Jews & all other Non-muhammadists & ‘kissed’ penises of boys & sucked boys’ tongues & lips (see Wikiislam).

Tasnime Akunjee needs to be deported. Why would a presentable woman marry a creep like this?

How outrageous to even hint that any British person is to blame for the savage death of Lee Rigby.
I don’t consider the savages British or human that did this to Lee Rigby.

She married him out of ignorance of Islam and money. But Muslim men are the most miserable, angry creatures you could ever know. So I’m sure she gets an earful of his anti-white, anti-British hateful rants on a daily basis. The language he uses shows just how irritating he is.

Islam ingrains the us vs them mentality early in muslim children, so they grow up feeling smug and justified at hating us ‘infidels’ who they take advantage of to better their own lives.

They get into positions of power to help each other exploit the system and eventually destroy it from within. I’m just amazed at how foolish Britain is for even allowing this to happen. You’d think there would be back door meetings by the British ruling class about an eventual Islamic takeover of their country.

Instead we see the exact opposite, the retarded media/elites are completely behind this destruction of their democracy and they demonize anyone who speaks out against it. If the Muslims had the numbers, the UK would already be an Islamic state now because they face nearly zero opposition.

They are doing two things. 1) Islamist are easy to control only have to control the imam’s. Think slave labor. 2) They use them to Balknize country Just like they are using illegals against the U.S. Allows them to control population by pitting people against each other.

The problem is both illegals and Muslims are not capable of a whole lot.
With exceptions the majority are not real bright or ambitious. The standard of living will decline to that of where they came from. “Education” will make no difference with them.

Money felix. Some people marry for it.

He is a special piece of work with all the terrorist cases he handles. The click phrase, Muslims don’t have to co operate with the police, is identical to the quote from Mustafa Carroll. Muslims think they are superior people. It must be the goat humping that leads them there.

I’m not through that Russian PDF yet. I don’t have allot of knowledge about Russian history so I went over to youtube and saw other things I was not aware of – the planned famine that killed roughly 8 million people who were viewed as a threat. Horrible!

I may have some questions on that PDF once I get through it and educate myself some more about Russia. This is the PDF I refer to http://www.withchrist.org/Postmodernism%20Truth%20And%20Deception.pdf

It is worth paying some attention to. I didn’t know much of it either until I got interested in a few Russian women on a dating website 15 years ago. LOL…heck of a way to learn….regardless, I became interested in their society as it is now. A lot different than it was while I was growing up during the Cold War. I was trained to hate them. I don’t. I have a few acquaintances in both Russia and Ukraine who are English speakers. Communication is the key to understanding anything. I find their history to be fascinating.

Here is a family photo of the Romanov’s. The outdoor photo was taken in the Crimea.

The Lee Rigby murderer at the site explained that sura 9 (At-Tawba) of the “religion of peace” Qur’an that made him do it. Most news media neglected to mentioning that.

“But we are forced by the Qur’an, in Sura At-Tawba, through many ayah in the Qu’ran, we must fight them as they fight us.”

I would not expect most Muslims to cooperate with police.

I am convinced Islam is Satan’s ultimate counterfeit religion.
It is the antithesis of Judaism and Christianity.
This checklist doesn’t begin to show how evil it is but a start.
It’s also in the Quran so of course Sharia Law endorses it.

I agree with you entirely, Felix. A Cult feigning to be a religion. I, also, deem it as Satan’s counterfeit religion that will ultimately lead the world to Armageddon. It is the antithesis of Judaism, Christianity and humanity. I was taught not to loathe, hate those of diverse beliefs. I followed that pathway as well as I was able; however, Islam and alliance with the Globalists, Progressive-Fascists opened my eyes. I admit, I never for numerous decades had tolerance but loathed the Muslim scourge; historically, or upon learning its malignant wantonness to present day. If that makes any sense… the old mind is wandering and awash with revulsion for this fetid, savage Cult.

I understand what you are saying and where you are coming from

I was fooled over the years by globalists. Now it all makes sense that both parties have been pushing it for decades. The GOP was going by the speed limit while the DEMS were trying to get there asap. Sure there are some that aren’t but I am disappointed in what I see going on in D.C..

The media has always been liberal. Today they have taken that to new levels. They lie outright or simply don’t cover it in the news if it doesn’t square with their progressive agenda or is positive for Trump/ I have never seen it this bad. The viciousness and intensity appears to be getting worse. The liberal media is doing all it can to incite violence and hate.

Islam was something I had heard about in the 1990’s but didn’t really see it as a threat then. At a church we used to attend, Norman Geisler would come to visit our pastor.
Our pastor had been a seminary student of his from years ago and they kept in touch.
Geisler would visit with his family and lecture us on the differences between Islam and Christianity and how to approach a Muslim. He recognized Islam as a problem. I think Geisler also had some contact with Charles Colson who saw it as a problem during his prison ministry.

What Geisler presented was interesting but we never had any encounters with Muslims. After 9/11 is when I became more curious about it. Since then I have learned allot about Islam and how utterly evil it is. Islam completely repulses me.

All Muslims talk like terrorists when you gain their trust.

Alternately, they assume we’re really stupid and like this man, spout off blameshame nonsense justifying their idiotic beliefs surrounding violence.

My female muslim accountant one year spontaneously started preaching her religion to me nonstop during my tax return processing. I could not believe how bloody obvious her terrorist narratives were.

They ALL think the same way.

Only liars in that faith, people who do not trust nonMuslims, who are worried we’d see through them, lie and claim moderate beliefs.

The very first two things they teach which are basis for all terrorism are that it’s better to be killed than not be a Muslim and no one is a “good” unless they’re afraid of extreme physical punishments.

The next part is always about how inferior in intelligence and judgement women are (naive, temptresses), and how covering themselves and avoiding talking to the men is the only way they can be controlled properly.

Lastly, that men are the reason everything exists, not women nor children and as such they deserve honors and recognition above that of females whose purpose is so menial in bearing and rearing offspring that god did not need them to be intelligent.

Etc.

Lying, misogynistic, extreme violence, murderous beliefs.
