UK designates Hizb ut-Tahrir a 'terrorist organization'

CGTN

The British government said in a statement on Friday that the organization Hizb ut-Tahrir has been proscribed as a "terrorist organization" following parliament's approval of a draft order.

"This order makes belonging to Hizb ut-Tahrir or inviting support for the group a criminal offence, with a potential prison sentence of 14 years which can be handed down alongside or in place of a fine," the statement added.
