Investigation Continues Into 'Suicide Bomber' DVD
A British police investigation into the sale of a DVD, which appears to glorify suicide bombers, is continuing.
On Thursday, a 33-year-old man was arrested in connection with the investigation in Bradford. He was held on suspicion of distributing material likely to stir up racial hatred, but has since been released on bail, pending further inquiries.
The DVD shows a dramatisation of a girl pledging to become a suicide bomber, like her mother.
The Yorkshire Post newspaper passed the DVD on to West Yorkshire Police last December.
