Doesn't sound like discrimination to me....

Why was he sending his kids to such a mosque?

A Muslim policeman is suing Scotland Yard for race and religious discrimination after he was removed from an armed protection unit on the advice of MI5, it has emerged.

PC Amjad Farooq, 39, says he was axed from the Met's elite Diplomatic Protection Group (DPG) when vetting revealed his two young children attended a mosque associated with a radical Muslim cleric. The imam is alleged to have links to a suspected terrorist group in Pakistan.

PC Farooq, a father-of-five, was promoted to the role as part of a Met Police diversity drive to boost ethnic minorities in its top units. But he claims that, after background checks were made, he was told by a senior officer that he was a threat to national security.
