– Muslims Overrepresented In UK Prison Population By Almost Three Times:
Figures released by the UK government reveal that Muslims make up 18 per cent of the prison population, despite comprising only 6.5 per cent of the population in general.
“Ministry of Justice (MoJ) data has revealed that there were 15,594 Muslim prisoners in England and Wales in September last year, accounting for 18 per cent of all inmates despite comprising only 6.5 per cent of the population,” reports the Telegraph.
Muslims represent the only religion that is overrepresented in prison compared to their general population figure.
