Activist held under Terrorism Act ~ BBC.com Thursday, 8 February 2007
A Muslim activist has been arrested in east London over allegations of encouraging terrorism. Abu Izzadeen was arrested in Leyton High Road by counter-terrorism officers, Scotland Yard said.
He hit the headlines last September after heckling Home Secretary John Reid but it is understood the inquiry is related to a 2006 speech in Birmingham. Mr Izzadeen, 32, is being held at a central London police station under Section 1 of the Terrorism Act 2006.
