A SUSPENDED Poole school governor is due to be served with an harassment order by Dorset Police.

Ibrahim Bassiouni has restored his Facebook campaign “Remove the chair of governors at Poole High School” with posts including suggestive video clips and photos.

Sarah Simpson, clerk to the governors of the school, who made an allegation of sexual harassment which led to governors suspending the parent governor for six months, made a complaint to the police on July 22.

Dorset Police have confirmed that a complaint of harassment was made by her and involving Facebook, between May 14 and July 22, which they are investigating.

Video clips and photos on Mr Bassiouni’s Facebook page, which suggests they are of Sarah Simpson, are from a promotional video she made years ago for a Dorset band called Moontown and feature former singer Emma Friendship-Kilburn.

“It was a bit of fun,” said Emma, who is campaign manager for Dorset company Gungho Marketing, and is also considering a complaint to the police.

“If you watch the whole video there is nothing sordid on it at all,” she said. “There is no harm in any of it.”

Sarah’s company Hubulu made the film to promote a single release by the band and does not herself feature in it.

She said the story of the film was that the singer wanted the microphone to sing to but |was handed a number of other items by the band, including a sex toy.

“That was on screen for about three seconds,” she said.

The police have told her that Mr Bassiouni would be served with a harassment order and could be arrested if he breached it, she said.

Mr Bassiouni, 57, who said he contacted Dorset Police on Friday and was told police had no issues with his campaign , added: “I have the right to peaceful protest and to freedom of speech.

“There are no incidents of harassment in my campaign and clearly anyone who complained does not understand the legal meaning of harassment.”

He has now lodged a complaint with the police claiming to |have been harassed by Sarah Simpson.
