Asghar Bukhari: what Wikipedia removed

Asghar Bukhari is a British Muslim political campaigner and a founding member of the Muslim Public Affairs Committee UK. Through 2020 the opening said he “has run into controversy over accusations of antisemitism.” Today the opening describes him only as a campaigner and commentator, though antisemitism survives seven times in the body. A reader arriving now does not learn from the opening that Bukhari has faced public accusations of antisemitism.

The word “antisemitism” appeared 1 times in this article’s opening at its peak, in 2015. Today the opening carries none; the body carries 7. Checked against the full current article on 2026-08-01.
