"If found guilty under Sharia Law she will get six months in prison and/or 40 lashes.
"Excuse me but how can Sudan be a member of the UN? This is a bad country just like dozens of others who have no regard for human rights," Colmoma
"Now, I know it's an 'over the top' reaction but surely a teacher would know the sensitivities attached to the name of Mohammed. I mean, doesn't she read the papers?" Moriarty, Maghull
"I expect people to obey the law in this country, the same should apply over there although I can't see her getting the lash," Marty1
"The odd thing about this story is we all know by now the seemingly fragile Muslim sensitivities, yet the teacher asked the school children to name the teddy, they suggested, Abdul, Mohammed, and many other popular Muslim names, they chose 'Mohammed' probably because it is the most popular name anyway
"They say the Liverpool teacher was naive, but I think 40 lashes or three months jail is just a bit strong!" Chancery 3
"What is it about the Brits? They go abroad and think it’s an extension of their own society", Michael
