Three members of a so-called 'Muslim Patrol' were today jailed at the Old Bailey for repeatedly trying to enforce Sharia law in East London.
Jordan Horner and another Islamic extremist told one couple they could not hold hands while walking down the street, because it was in a 'Muslim area'.
The radicals also attacked a group of men drinking in the road, and told a woman she would face 'hell fire' because of the way she was dressed.
Horner, 19, Ricardo MacFarlane, 36, and a 23-year-old man who cannot be named for legal reasons were sentenced to 68 weeks, 12 months and 24 weeks in prison respectively.

In a society where feminism and political correctness can send a young man to re-education camp if he dares speak his mind, there may be a certain attraction to groups who can vent their anger, and nobody dares tell them No.
In a different time and place, I could see this boy as a clean-shaven, neatly dresses member of the Hitler Youth, for similar reasons.
Mohammad Youth...now theres a “meme”

One is not allowed to name those accused of crimes, nor are they allowed to name those convicted of crimes, unless the government agrees.
It is a crime to report the names of those who are accused of committing crimes there, unless the government decides one can name them.
There does not seem to be a reason why for either way, except that their government decrees who may be lawfully reported as an accused, and who may be reported as an adjudicated criminal.
That is strange. I’ve seen some other foreign news, I think German but it might have been French, were accused perps were identified by their first names only.
After some of the stuff we’ve seen in the country with people having their lives ruined and their families threatened maybe it’s not the worst idea in the world.
Not quite. Firstly, these decision are nothing to do with government. They are matters for the courts - and in Britain, as in the US, there is separation of powers between the courts and government. Secondly, the presumption is the other way round - names can be reported unless there is a court order prohibiting their publication. The circumstances in which names can be witheld are very narrowly defined, and are all derived from the contempt of court laws, designed to prevent publication of anything which could prejudice a fair trial.
Probably because he’s also been charged with another offence for which he’s yet to stand trial.
They’re always after me lucky charms!
OK, that’s interesting too. If so, this would be considered prejudicial to that other trial?
he does look rather like that a leprechaun come to think of it.
Yes

That’s because you have sadly swallowed a lot of myth and hysteria about the UK.
Sadly, no.
