A
muslim zealot, who saw himself as an Islamic cultural policeman,
spewed hate at a health centre during a row over a female's clothing.
Mohammed
Amin, 37, of Lea Bridge Road, Leyton was well known in Whitechapel
for approaching muslim women and lecturing them on their dress.
His
latest confrontation was at St. Andrew's Health Centre, Bow, where he
told a female member of staff she wasn't appropriately dressed and
subjected a doctor to anti-Christian abuse.
He
was convicted by a Snaresbrook Crown Court jury of two counts of
racially or religiously aggravated threatening behaviour against NHS
staff on April 9, last year.
Amin
gave a handwritten note to a female member of staff stating she was
not following the Islamic dress code.
The
staff member confronted Amin and he made threats towards her.
A doctor intervened and he was also verbally abused on the basis of his perceived membership of the Christian faith.

Detective
Constable Ami Henderson of the Metropolitan Police's Central East
Command Unit said: “We
believe Amin regularly approached Muslim women, or women he perceived
to be Muslim, in Tower Hamlets and confronted them about their
appearance.
“I commend the two victims at the health centre for coming forward and giving evidence at court.
