The CTU said in a statement: ‘Police are investigating a number of reports of potentially malicious communications sent to individuals across the UK.



‘Officers are currently investigating the full circumstances.

‘Counter Terrorism Policing North East are coordinating the investigation at this time and will consider any potential links to existing enquiries.

‘Anyone with any concerns about a communication they may have received should contact their local police force.’

The letter, which bears an image similar to the royal coat of arms, says: ‘Sheep follow orders and are easily led, they are allowing the white majority nations of Europe and North America to become over-run by those who like nothing more than to do us harm and turn our democracies into Shaira led police states.’

Councillor Riaz Ahmed, a Liberal Democrat in Bradford, said he received the letter to his business address and passed it on to police.

He felt the document was meant to alarm people.

He added: ‘It was not addressed to anyone, just the address and postcode as if it was sent out randomly.

‘It has a second class stamp on the plain white envelope and the frank mark is Sheffield. It was posted yesterday.

‘It seems strange that anyone would send something like this to an address in a predominantly Muslim area. When I opened it and saw the content I was horrified.’

The letter had an image of a dagger with the letters MS, which could stand for ‘Muslim Slayer’.

Police forces across the country are continuing to investigate and are were working with anti-racism groups like Tell Mama UK.

Tell Mama UK added: ‘It is essential that all letters and envelopes are kept and handled minimally to preserve evidence for the police to investigate.

‘Incidents like this are rare but we urge vigilance and calm as we remind Muslim communities that our confidential support service is available to assist in this matter.’

Anyone with any concerns about a communication they may have received should contact police on 101.
