#IStandWithAhmed

Nihal

Available for over a year

A 14 year old student in America was arrested after his high school alerted police because they thought the home made clock he was carrying was a "hoax bomb". Ahmed Mohamed's arrest has been sharply criticised, and the boy has received an outpouring of support including an invitation to the White House. Ahmed told reporters it was "very sad" that his teacher thought his clock was a threat. Are people in the UK as paranoid about Muslims as those in the US seem to be? Listen to what our callers had to say.
