Muslim doctor suspended after Piers Morgan appearance reinstated by NHS

A British doctor who was suspended by NHS London after appearing on Piers Morgan's show on Talk TV has been reinstated, his lawers said on Monday.

Dr Wahid Shaida was the UK chair of Hizb ut-Tahrir until it was proscribed by the British government in January.

Shaida appeared on Piers Morgan Uncensored last year after the 7 October attack by Hamas-led fighters in southern Israel, which killed at least 1,149 people and saw 250 people, including soldiers and civilians, taken captive.

In a heated exchange, Morgan and Shaida debated Islamic law and the justifications for the attacks.
