CCTV cameras have been installed at a Nottinghamshire mosque in a bid to deter vandals.

There have been regular attacks at the Jamee Masjid mosque in Mansfield since it opened in 2008.

Recently the letters BNP have been carved into its wooden door, windows have been smashed and people have spit on the door.

It is hoped the cameras will help catch the culprits. Police have appealed for witnesses to come forward.
