As Majid moves forward, we pray that justice is also served in his upcoming case in April, where Majid and many others are being targeted simply for speaking up for the Palestinian people. May truth prevail once again. #Justice
Update: This morning @LeicsPolice privately shared an update with some members of the community. Yet they continue to avoid publicly acknowledging the provocative incident. This is a matter of public concern for Leicester & beyond-silence only raises more questions.
🚨 HINDUTVA GROUPS BACK ON LEICESTER STREETS 🚨
Once again, Hindutva extremist flags are being paraded openly in Leicester — the same Muslim-majority area that saw the original Hindutva march during the 2022 riots — accompanied by chants of “Jai Shree Ram.”
@LeicsPolice, where are you?
While the world is beginning to recognise the dangers of Zionism, the growing threat of Hindutva extremism is still being ignored and downplayed.
The Bajrang Dal — a militant right-wing group — takes Hindutva’s already distorted version of Hinduism to violent extremes. Following the ideology of M.S. Golwalkar, they openly declare that India should exist only for Hindus. Online, they fuel hate by spreading slogans like “Hindu Khatre Mein Hain” (translated: Hindus are under attack).
Their flag, often depicting Hanuman as a militant god alongside “Jai Shree Ram,” is not a symbol of faith, but of intimidation. For many Muslims of Indian origin, this flag is a chilling reminder of lynchings, assaults, and killings carried out under its banner in India.
These extremist flags have never been part of Leicester’s Hindu religious life. Their sudden emergence in recent years represents not spirituality, but imported Hindutva aggression.
AML will always stand on the side of justice and free speech. Those committing and contributing to genocide should be prosecuted. Not those opposing it. #WeAreAllPalestineAction 🇵🇸 @pal_action ✊🏼
Active Muslims Leicester (AML) stand in solidarity with @ChrisNineham from @STWUK and fellow protesters who were violently and needlessly arrested by the @metpoliceuk earlier today. We demand their immediate release! #FreeChris#FreePalestine ✊🏻✌🏻🇵🇸
Standing up against radicals leads to the unfair sentencing of Majid Freeman. Honour & Dignity is only from the Almighty. We post in solidarity with our comrade. #JUSTICE We stand with Majid Freeman
🚨 EMERGENCY PROTEST: #LEICESTER 🚨
Hands off Rafah - Stop the Genocide
Israeli military has ordered Palestinians to move out of Rafah, warning it is about to use “extreme force”.
🗓 Tueday 7 May, 6pm
📍The Clock Tower, Leicester
Join us in numbers 💪🏾
#HandsOffRafah
Once again it has been brought to our attention that some wish to continue to divide our communities. We hope prompt action will be taken by @LeicsPolice to address these matters. Our city has no place for intimidation and threats of violence.

Hindutva provocation resurfaces in Leicester. During Ram Navami procession on Thursday, Hindutva mob chanted “Ayodhya was just a glimpse, Kashi and Mathura are left. O Lord Krishna, we will come and build the temple right there for you. We are Hindu, and Hindu rashtra is ours.”
Really honoured to be invited by Active Muslims Leicester to join their protest through Leicester city centre, demanding a ceasefire. Thanks to @Majstar7 for the invite and for the opportunity to share these remarks.
Glad to wear and support the @SIMPLYCLO hoodie for Palestine
Important message from sister @yvonneridley who will be coming all the way to #Leicester for the Palestine demo this Saturday. We hope to see you there too. Enough is enough! #CeasefireNow! 🇵🇸
