Hundreds of people attended a rally against the anti-Islam film, 'Innocence of Muslims', in Halifax, West Yorkshire, yesterday afternoon.

All seven Calderdale mosques were represented at the afternoon rally, including those in Elland, Todmorden, and the five in Halifax.

Officers in groups of two are in position alongside community wardens in readiness of crowds assembling following afternoon prayers.

Hundreds walked from Madni Mosque to Queens Road for speeches from the rally's organisers as well as local politicians.
