TEHRAN, Mar 19-Britain’s Minister of State for Security Ben Wallace has warned Muslims in the country could become victims of high-profile terrorist attacks like those that killed 50 worshipers in two mosques in New Zealand on Friday.
TEHRAN, Young Journalists Club (YJC) -Speaking to the BBC Radio on Monday, Wallace said the government was hugely concerned about the mushroom growth of far-right extremist groups in the UK which he said could be a serious threat to the safety of around three million Muslims living in the country.
Wallace said a mass shooting of Muslims seen in the city of Christchurch in New Zealand on Friday “absolutely could happen” in Britain, adding that police and other security officials have been busy over the past days hunting down suspects that could have been inspired by the massacre.
“The government has been concerned about the growing group of people crossing into the extremist mindset on the far right, and the neo-Nazis,” said the minister, adding that police in London and Wales have made arrests in connection to attacks and operations that are believed to have been terrorist or related to far-right activity.
