The south Manchester mosque has failed to submit accounts on time for a second year running
Didsbury Mosque has been warned by the Charity Commission after failing to submit annual accounts on time for the second year running.
A Charity Commission spokesperson said: “Trustees of the Islamic Centre Manchester have not submitted their annual accounting information on time which has resulted in the charity showing as ‘in default’ on our register. We have contacted the charity to remind them of their reporting responsibilities.
The third and final report of the public inquiry into the 2017 bombing, published in early 2023, concluded Didsbury Mosque was not an ‘active factor or cause’ in the radicalisation of suicide bomber Salman Abedi or brother Hashem. But leaders of the Burton Road venue had demonstrated ‘wilful blindness’ to highly-charged political debate at the mosque about the conflict raging in Libya before the atrocity, inquiry chairman Sir John Saunders concluded.
It contained a series of criticisms including that trustees of Didsbury Mosque 'did not have a formal method of controlling' literature which contained 'possibly extremist messages'. They also 'did not submit' a report to the Charity Commission about alleged links to 'an act of terrorism' after it was reported that the Manchester Arena bomber prayed there.
