Observer Online Report

A tense situation has created in East London centering National Citizen Party (NCP) leader and member of parliament Hasnat Abdullah's event.

The event, organised by the NCP UK Alliance, was held at the Maeda Grill restaurant adjacent to the East London Mosque on Monday, where Hasnat Abdullah attended as the chief guest.

Suddenly, eggs were reportedly thrown towards NCP activists and supporters.

More than 100 police officers were deployed to prevent further escalation. Hasnat Abdullah arrived at the venue nearly three hours later due to heightened tensions.

Police, however, detained three individuals, including Afsar Khan Sadeq, joint general secretary of the London City Awami League, during the protests and disturbances outside Maeda Grill.
