REPORT: Omar Bakri Fostok's son asks UK to grant his father political asylum

Not even a single party in Lebanon's northern city of Tripoli has asked for the release of hardline Salafist cleric Omar Bakri Fostok since he was arrested on May 25.

Accordingly, Fostok's family in the UK felt it was necessary to raise their voice and the cleric's son called on the British authorities to grant his father political asylum.
