A man has been arrested in connection with alleged incidents of assault at a Keighley mosque, police revealed this morning.
The arrest follows the release of secret video footage taken in the madrassa at the Markazi Jamia mosque in Emily Street, Keighley.
The images are due to be shown on a Channel 4 Dispatches programme to be broadcast tonight from 8pm.
Today, a West Yorkshire Police Spokesman said: "We have recently become aware of a number of incidents of alleged assault at mosque in the Keighley area and just before the weekend were able to view edited footage of the alleged incident.
"These incidents have been recorded and posted on the internet.
"One man has been arrested in connection with the incidents and has been released on police bail pending further enquiries.
"West Yorkshire Police are receiving full co-operation from the Keighley Muslim Association who are working with us in support of the enquiry."
