Inayat Bunglawala is the media secretary of the Muslim Council of Britain. He sometimes writes for the Guardian.

Despite accusations of anti-semitism he was selected as one of seven "conveners" for a Home Office task force with responsibilities for tackling extremism among young Muslims

In January 1993, Mr Bunglawala wrote a letter to Private Eye, the satirical magazine, in which he called the blind Sheikh Omar Abdul Rahman "courageous" - just a month before he bombed the World Trade Center in New York. Five months before 9/11, Mr Bunglawala also circulated writings of Osama bin Laden, who he regarded as a "freedom fighter", to hundreds of Muslims in Britain (source: Alasdair Palmer, "Top job fighting extremism for Muslim who praised bomber," The Telegraph, Aug. 21, 2005).
