Justin Welby referred to various religious communities in the UK, saying that they are in a good position of co-operation and mutual support.
"We have all been appalled by the brutal murder of Drummer Lee Rigby in Woolwich," he said during a joint appearance in Leicester with Sheikh Ibrahim Mogra, the assistant secretary general of the Muslim Council of Britain.
The archbishop praised the way in which religious groups had reacted to the incident.
"I want to recognise the response of churches, mosques and other faith and civil society groups, as well as those of brave individuals who have done so much to bring our communities together at this time," he said.
"The strong response of the Muslim Council of Britain and many other organisations has rightly emphasised that these acts have no place in Islam." » | MOL/HE | Monday, May 27, 2013
