Spotting the signs of extremism

Britain's most senior Muslim police chief has said parents should be alert for signs which could indicate their child has been radicalised.

Scotland Yard commander Mak Chishty says teenagers who unexpectedly stop drinking, socialising with friends or wearing western clothes could be at risk.

Victoria spoke to Anira Khokar, a campaigner against extremism, Sarah Clarkson-Hewitt, headteacher of Anderton Park School, where 98% of the pupils are from a Muslim background, and Shiria Khatun, chair of the Shanaz Network, a network of women tackling radicalisation and extremism.
