7/7 Bombings: 10 Years On

7 July 2015, 15:44 | Updated: 30 March 2016, 13:50

10 years after the 7/7 terror attack in London, an extremist sympathiser from Bradford's told Capital not enough's been done to stop it happening again.

Alyas Karmani was an activist in the 70s, but is now a youth worker.

He says isolation from the community is what often influences young Muslims to turn towards the extremist ideology.

Alyas is now an Imam in Bradford and runs Street UK - a project working with young muslims at risk of being radicalised.

He claims that the Prevent programme, which is run by the police, criminalises young people, and the Muslim community, at the point of contact.

We contacted the Home Office to speak to a minister but they declined.

They did tell us their Prevent programme - which works specifically with communities at risk of radicalisation 'explicitly tackles all forms of terrorism and non-violent extremism.

Prevent is not about spying on anyone. It is about protecting those who might be vulnerable to the poisonous and pernicious influence of radicalisation. People who are supported by Prevent programmes are not criminalised in any way.' 

They went on to say that they've trained 300,000 people to identify and prevent extremism, stopped more hate preachers entering the country than any other government and taken more than 95,000 pieces of terrorist propaganda off the internet.

He says he feels angry when all muslims are labelled for extreme actions that just a few people make:
