Police have launched an investigation into claims that video tapes and DVDs handed out at mosques in Dewsbury were being used to recruit terrorists.
The tapes, purporting to contain readings from the Koran, were given to Muslims attending two mosques in Savile Town during the weekend's Eid festival.
Local resident Safiq Patel said: "When people played them they realised they were violent jihad videos." [...]
"They were shocked to find messages of jihad. It is someone trying to drum up violence, especially among the younger members of the community.
"Somebody is trying to infiltrate their consciences, decision-making and values in the hope of perhaps recruiting the terrorists of the future from this community."
A West Yorkshire Police spokeswoman said: "Members of the local Asian community have brought to our attention these matters.
Why the "claims" then?
