The “personal television station” of a so-called Islamic preacher who was banned from entering Britain is being broadcast to millions of homes despite concerns about extremist content, an investigation has found.

The Indian founder of Peace TV was barred from this country by Theresa May in 2010 when she was the home secretary after he praised Osama bin Laden and said “all Muslims should be terrorists”.

Zakir Naik’s television station is still available to Sky subscribers, despite having previously broken the broadcasting code by showing controversial material.
