Remember on Armistice Day where a group of muslims chanted "British Soldiers burn in hell" during the 2 minute silence, well this was his punishment.. a £50 fine.




Emdadur Choudhury, 26,
a member of Muslims Against Crusades (MAC), was guilty of a ''calculated and deliberate'' insult to the dead when he burned two large plastic poppies during a two-minute silence on November 11, District Judge Howard Riddle said.

Members of MAC were heard chanting ''British soldiers burn in hell'' before the poppy-burning incident near the Royal Albert Hall in west London, Belmarsh Magistrates heard.

''The two-minute chanting, when others were observing a silence, followed by a burning of the symbol of remembrance was a calculated and deliberate insult to the dead and those who mourn or remember them,'' District Judge Riddle said in a ruling given at Woolwich Crown Court.

Mohammad Haque, 30, of Mace Street, Bethnal Green, east London, a fellow MAC member, was found not guilty of the same public order offence.
Choudhury, of Hunton Street, Spitalfields, east London, had denied a charge under Section 5 of the Public Order Act of burning the poppies in a way that was likely to cause "harassment, harm or distress" to those who witnessed it
