An 18 year-old Muslim extremist was fined £100 for distributing homophobic stickers (pictured) which called for a 'gay-free zone' in East London.

 

Mohammed Hasnath, 18, posted stickers warning gays that homosexuality was wrong in February.

 

The stickers were distributed around the Whitechapel, Shoreditch and Poplar areas, featuring a rainbow flag with a line through it. The stickers specifically targeted schools and pubs, including the gay-friendly pub The George and Dragon.

The editor of popular gay women's blog Lez Get Real was identified as a man - just 24 hours after Tom MacMaster was revealed as the so-called 'Gay Girl From Damascus'.

His real persona was revealed after his involvement with Amina Abdallah - McMaster's guise - was questioned.
