C4 news story: police break down door of Bahrain Embassy

Moosa Mohammed was so keen to protest the imminent execution of two men in Bahrain in July that he climbed onto the roof of the Bahraini embassy in London to unfurl a banner.

Then, as other protestors and police watched from below, the embassy staff appeared to struggle with him. In an unprecedented move police broke into the embassy and arrested him. He claims the Bahrainis threatened his life, the Bahrainis say that’s ridiculous and claim they called the police fearing a terrorist attack.

With Channel 4’s Senior Home Affairs correspondent Simon Israel I analysed footage of the incident and produced this report for the evening news.
