Moeen Ali detained at Birmingham airport - chairman - 04-09-2016 England batsman Moeen Ali on Saturday was stopped at the Birmingham airport for about 40 minutes owing to the airport rules and regulations, that follows custom check out policy. Following the issue, Moeen went on to his official Twitter handle, where he tweeted, saying that he was having a hard time at the Birmingham airport. He also mentioned that it is not an usual issue when he travels with the team or is in the team uniform. However, the issue pops up only when he travels alone, as he termed the whole issue as a joke.

Re: Moeen Ali detained at Birmingham airport - Mail - 04-10-2016 Look they have to take precautions however I look nothing like Mo but capable of doing anything. This is more of religious profiling which we are very well versed in this country. After all we had the 'Sus Law' etc....... I am pleased he took it in his stride.
