## Summary

Sayed Hussain Makke, a London-born Shia preacher accused of praising members of Hezbollah and Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, is due to run a six-day religious and physical training retreat in Thailand. The planned event has renewed scrutiny of his activities and raised questions from a former parliamentary foreign affairs committee chair about how authorities respond to allegations of support for a proscribed group.

The retreat is advertised for men who “no longer know how to be men” and is scheduled for 1 to 6 December, with workshops, training and reflection. Makke previously ran similar camps in England; the article says a video shows men listening to a lecture in a boxing ring. Alicia Kearns says she has reported him to counter-terrorism police and asked the Home Office why he was not arrested after returning to the UK; the article does not include Makke’s response.
