Faiz Siddiqi arriving at RAF Uxbridge to give evidence in the case of Moshin Khan, 24, a Muslim RAF reservist disciplined for refusing on religious grounds to fight in the Iraq war, to appeal against the ruling. It is alleged that Leading Aircraftsman Khan, a medic, went into hiding after being called up for pre-deployment training. He was arrested under the Air Force Act 1955 and summoned to appear before his junior subordinate commander. A punishment of seven days restrictions and nine days forfeiture of pay was administered, but Mr Khan appealed and the disciplinary action was not taken.
