The Muslim community in Malta has condemned “the terror criminal attack” at Westminster in London, “irrespective of the identity or ideology of the criminal perpetrators and their motives”.

In a statement this evening, Imam Mohammed Elsadi said the coward savage attack targeted innocent people regardless of their faith or nationality.

“We consider any aggression against Europe as an aggression against all Muslims who live in Europe.

“It is a serious threat to the Muslim harmonious peaceful life in different European countries.”

Terrorism, he said, was the enemy of Islam and Muslims were fighting terrorism and worked to eliminate its evils.

The community expressed solidarity with the British people, the injured and their families.
