(BBC) The Muslim Council of Britain has criticised the choice of a new chairman to lead an investigation into the disorder in Leicester last year.
Dozens were arrested after days of vandalism, assaults, and attacks on property followed tensions involving mainly young men from Hindu and Muslim communities.
On Friday, the former Labour MP Lord Austin was appointed to lead a review.
The government has defended its decision.
A review was commissioned last year by Leicester city mayor Sir Peter Soulsby, but the academic chosen to lead it stepped down.
