A street sign which says ‘Muslims are humans too’ is being investigated by police.

The A4 sheet is similar to the one MP Jim Fitzpatrick asked the Mayor of Tower Hamlets to probe.

That sign was posted near Bartlett Park, London and said: “Do not walk your dog here! Muslims do not like dogs. This is an Islamic area now.”

This new sign was seen on a lamp post near a chip shop, also in the Tower Hamlets.

Police are looking into several complaints from unnamed people who are offended by the sign.

One man said, “These A4 sheets are definitely real signs with real meanings.

“I want my MP to take time out of his busy schedule and look into this.”

Another resident said, “I want a criminal investigation. This is clearly a divisive sign and something we should take seriously and not something my two-year old could have typed out on his computer at home.

“Muslims are human too? Who would have thought it!.”

Police said they would be diverting their already stretched resources to investigate the matter.
