MUSLIM leaders fear the younger members of their community could retaliate after a petrol bomb was thrown through the window of a Swindon mosque.

Swastikas and anti-Islamic abuse were daubed on the walls of the Broad Street mosque in an apparent backlash following the alleged terrorist plot to blow up planes from British airports.

It is the third time the building has been targeted. This latest attack comes days after Swindon's Muslim leaders met police to ask for more protection. [Link]
