'This has nothing to do with Islam'

A representative from the Muslim Council of Britain has condemned a machete attack in Woolwich, south-east London, in which one man was killed.

Two suspects, who were shot and wounded by police, have been arrested in connection with the murder.

Footage has emerged showing a man wielding a bloodied meat cleaver and making political statements.

Ibrahim Mogra said that the vast majority of Muslims would say that the attacks had "nothing to do with Islam" and were the action of a minority.
