LONDON, June 14 (Reuters) – British anti-Islam activist Tommy Robinson said he was detained at Heathrow Airport on Saturday and \u200bhad his phone seized, after a week when \u200che posted heavily online about racist and anti-immigrant riots in Northern Ireland.<\/div>\n
Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, said on X \u200bhe was held on Saturday evening for \u200baround three hours under the Counter-Terrorism and Border \u2060Security Act.<\/div>\n
“My phone has been seized by the police,” \u200bhe said on X. “Please help kick off my legal \u200bfund for defence”.<\/div>\n
Robinson tweeted repeatedly last week about violence that swept Belfast after a video went viral showing the brutal stabbing of \u200ba man, who lost an eye in the attack. \u200bA Sudanese man has been charged with attempted murder. Police have \u200csaid \u2060they are not treating the attack as terrorism.<\/div>\n
In the days that followed rioters targeted homes and businesses owned by ethnic minorities or foreign residents in what the British \u200bminister for \u200bthe province called racist \u2060thuggery.<\/div>\n
Local politicians have said far-right agitators online had helped to coordinate or promote \u200bthe violence.<\/div>\n
Without naming him, a police spokesman \u200bsaid officers \u2060had stopped a man in his 40s at Heathrow Airport on Saturday, following his return to Britain from \u2060Russia \u200bvia Turkey.<\/div>\n
“The man was interviewed by \u200bofficers and his communication devices were seized. He was subsequently released,” \u200bthe spokesman said.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
