Excerpt:
The leader of a Muslim community has told how he invited a suspected terrorist from Blackburn to his country to teach at his new mosque.
Businessman Altaf Rajah told Manchester Crown Court that he asked Abbas Iqbal, 24, of Percival Street, Blackburn, to join his 200-strong organisation in Northern Europe.
Iqbal was arrested at Manchester Airport last summer when he and another alleged extremist were found carrying 'terrorism-related material'.
