LONDON - Inmates in Britain are converting to Islam because of the "perks" they can receive in jail, the Chief Inspector of Prisons warned in a report published yesterday.
Ms Anne Owers also said Muslim prisoners are being driven to extremism because they are all treated as potential terrorists while in jail, despite the fact that fewer than one per cent are in prison for terror-related offences.
Some prisoners believe they will receive "material benefits" such as more time out of their cell and better food during the fasting month of Ramadan if they become Muslim, Ms Owers said in her report.
