London - The House of Commons in the UK held a hearing session, on Tuesday, to discuss the Muslim Brotherhood issue in the UAE. The British Parliament had previously held a similar session for secretary-general, Ibrahim Mounir, member of the international organization of the Brotherhood in which he defended his group's position from violence and terrorism. After the previous session of Mounir, the House of Commons voted in favor of allowing the group to continue its work on British territory. The controversial relationship between the Brotherhood and the UK started back in 1928, when the British Suez Canal Company financed the founder Supreme Guide of the Brotherhood Hassan Al-Banna and his group. At the time, British intelligence aimed to promote radical Islam in Egypt. Mounir acknowledged the secret relation between the Brotherhood and Britain, saying that they keep strong relation with British intelligence authorities and other departments in the government.
