(GB News) A Christian street preacher arrested in Rotherham town centre after asking a Muslim about the Quran’s teaching on domestic violence has said he has been vindicated after charges against him were dropped.
Former miner John Steele, 60, was arrested and told he faced a non-crime hate incident on his record after a discussion with a Muslim woman in the south Yorkshire town.
Steele, who is being supported by lawyers at the Christian Legal Centre, was arrested on June 21 after engaging in a 30-second conversation with a Muslim woman wearing a hijab at a public awareness stall offering support to ethnic minority women experiencing domestic abuse.
