LONDON (AFP) - The leader of the right-wing British National Party (BNP), Nick Griffin, was arrested after a television journalist covertly filmed him calling Islam a "vicious, wicked faith."Griffin, 45, was arrested on suspicion of "incitement to commit racial hatred" and held for questioning by police in Halifax, northern England before he was released on bail hours later.Surrounded by chanting supporters, Griffin told journalists he was asked to reappear at the police station in March.When asked if he stood by his comments that Islam was a "vicious, wicked faith", Griffin urged reporters to study the Koran for themselves before saying: "There are aspects of that religion which are wicked."He then condemned the treatment of women under Islam.
