(BBC) A mosque has denied accusations of promoting violence and radicalisation by a lawyer representing victims of the 2017 Manchester Arena bombing.
Didsbury Mosque, where bomber Salman Abedi worshipped, claimed it had been “demonised” since the attack.
John Cooper QC accused the mosque of failing to confront extremism earlier this month at the inquiry into the atrocity.
The mosque said it had been placed in danger of extremist reprisals.
A spokesman said it had been a victim of “smearing and demonisation by some at the inquiry and in the media.”
