FLDS
Federal prosecutors plan to use a prison recording of polygamist leader Warren Jeffs in an effort to keep two of his followers in jail pending trial on food stamp fraud and money laundering charges.

John Wayman and Seth Jeffs (one of Warren Jeffs’ brothers) are asking a judge to revisit their detention. U.S. District Court Judge Ted Stewart ordered them jailed after prosecutors said the pair met — in violation of court orders — under a directive from Warren Jeffs.


Ultra-orthodox Jews
Inside the closed world of Hasidic Jews in the UK are stories of mothers who risk everything in order to leave their communities, with their children.Emily and Ruth are two women who found themselves locked in lopsided battles - facing harassment, intimidation, and crowd-funded lawyers. Neither of them realised what it would cost them.


Unarians
Followers of the group, formed in 1954, say they find comfort in the idea of reincarnation.


Syed Muzaffar Shah Qadri
"
​​
Syed Muzaffar Shah Qadri has been banned from preaching in Pakistan because his sermons are considered too incendiary. However, he is due to visit a number of English mosques, in heavily promoted events where he is given star billing."
hate groups
A hate group is a faction that attacks or vilifies a sector of people based on immutable characteristics: things like race, sexual orientation, and gender.

In an extensive 2015 analysis, the Southern Poverty Law Center(SPLC) determined that 892 hate groups exist in America. Of these groups, 528 — or roughly 60 percent — subscribe to white supremacist ideologies.

“White supremacy” is a very broad term, referring to the racist ideology that whites are superior to nonwhites and should maintain political, economic, and social authority.
Acharya Balkrishna, the man behind Patanjali Ayurved’s stratospheric success, is unlike any traditional CEO.

At 43, he may have many contemporaries, but his management style differs vastly.
Radicalization
"Ouanoufi says the recruiters, from ISIS, earn money for each young person they hook. He's spent 17 years as a social worker in the neighborhoods of public housing blocks that ring Strasbourg. He says the work used to focus on fighting unemployment and delinquency. But now, the focus is on jihad."
