A mosque is being investigated by the Charity Commission over leaflets distributed saying Ahmadi Muslims, a minority group, should face capital punishment if they do not convert to mainstream Islam within three days.
Leaflets ladened with information like this was found at Stockwell Green mosque in south London. Mosque officials said they knew nothing about the leaflets and have suggested it may have been left maliciously.
The Charity Commission visited the mosque and identified “serious regulatory concerns over governance, financial management and trustees “carrying out activities outside of the charity’s stated objects”.
