Juhel Miah, 25, is demanding an apology after security staff kicked him off a flight from Reykjavik to New York.

The maths teacher was travelling with 39 pupils.

It comes after US President Donald Trump tried to ban visitors from several Muslim nations.

Mr Miah has a US visa, which is valid until 2019 and no criminal record.

But he was escorted from the plane and said he was “made to feel like a criminal”.

The teacher, from Llangatwg Community School in Neath, south Wales, has not been told why he was refused entry but believes he was kicked off the plane because of his religion in the wake of President Trump’s “Muslim ban”.

Neath Port Talbot Council has written to the US Embassy in London.

A spokesman said: “He feels belittled and upset at what appears to be an unjustified act of discrimination.”
