The Mail on Sunday can reveal that NHS employee Omar Abdallah Mansuur, 39 – an influential imam – faces claims that he decreed a fellow Muslim should get the death penalty for insulting the Prophet Mohammed. His broadcast was made to tens of thousands of followers and is thought to be the first time a cleric in Britain has made such a threat.
In some of his inflammatory diatribes, Mansuur appears on video from inside St Thomas’ Hospital – directly across the Thames from the Houses of Parliament – where he works in procurement.
YCMIU, could you? And these days you no longer have to…
Staff describe bespectacled Mansuur, a British national of Somali origin who lives in North London with his wife and children, as unassuming and polite. But his social media profiles tell a different story.
Shocker!
On Friday, after the MoS passed on its evidence, the hospital said Mansuur had been suspended pending an investigation.
And hopefully, the police will be taking an interest too. How many more of these have infiltrated our institutions?
