After over a decade of legal proceedings, preacher Abu Qatada has been acquitted by a court in Jordan of involvement in violent attacks in 2000. Described as being "at the centre in the United Kingdom of terrorist activities associated with al-Qaeda" by British press, Qatada's deportation last year raised deep questions about the enforcement of Human Rights legislation. Joining Yasmin Khatun to discuss the issues are Sheikh Dr Khaled Fikry, an Islamic Scholar and Middle East commentator; Bernard Keenan, a national security law expert and a researcher on national security issues at the London School of Economics; and Chris Doyle, director of the Council for Arab-British Understanding, CAABU.
