BRITISH Muslims will protest on Sunday against the anti-terrorism police raid on an east London home last week in which a man was shot.

Anger at Friday's raid of the Lansdown Road home by 250 officers is growing within the London Muslim community, which are calling on the police and MI5 to admit if the operation was based on inaccurate intelligence.

The protest, called by lobby group Stop Political Terror, will be held outside New Scotland Yard at 2.30pm, Sunday.

The rally is being supported by the anti-war Respect Party, the Muslim Association of Britain and the Muslim Council of Britain which earlier this week voiced fears that trust between the Asian community and police could break down.

While a member of the Respect Party, Yvonne Ridley, who became a Muslim after her kidnap by the Taliban in Afghanistan five years ago, has called on Muslims to stop cooperating with police.

It's been reported the raid was launched after "specific intelligence" that a suspected chemical bomb was being developed inside the family house. But it's believed a five day search of the house has failed to find any evidence of the suspect explosive device.

Brothers Mohammed Abdul Kahar, 23, and Abdul Koyair, 20, are being held by police on suspicion of being involved in a terror plot. Police are today expected to ask a judge for more time to question the pair.

The brother's lawyers said both men deny any involvement in terrorism. They are being held without charge at the high security Paddington Green police station.

It emerged today that an older brother of the pair took part in the London demonstrations against Muslim cartoons.

He was photographed standing next to a man dressed as a mock suicide bomber.

It's expected detectives will request that the brothers are detained until next Wednesday. The maximum time they can be held from the time of their arrest last Friday is two weeks.

Kahar was wounded in the raid when he was hit by a police bullet. The Independent Police Complaints Commission is investigating conflicting accounts of how and why Kahar was shot in the chest.

Meanwhile, Prime Minister Tony Blair has said he supported the police "101 per cent" over the raid. Detectives earlier said they had "no choice" but to launch the operation.
