UK mosques urged to improve security over fear of attacks

LONDON: British mosques have been advised to beef up security measures, including holding lockdown drills, to prepare in case of attacks. The recommendations in a framework by the Muslim Council of Britain suggest that mosques forge closer ties with local police and improve CCTV around premises amid fears of threats and attacks. The framework comes in the wake of a series of violent incidents in recent weeks, including riots in Belfast following a knife attack by a migrant on a local man, and a suspected arson attack on the home of an imam in Bolton.
