Prisoners convert to Islam for jail perks
8th June 2010
Inmates are converting to Islam in order to gain perks and the protection of powerful Muslim gangs, the Chief Inspector of Prisons warns today.
Dame Anne Owers says that some convicted criminals are taking up the religion in jail to receive benefits only available to practising Muslims.
And that’s precisely why most of the Middle East is Muslim to this day. Why mess with a system that has worked for a thousand years?
