A disgraced former governor of a school linked to the Trojan Horse plot in Birmingham is being sued over claims he barred staff brought in after an Ofsted inspection.
Waseem Yaqub is alleged to have harassed staff appointed to turn the Al-Hijrah School around, according to a high court writ lodged by the city council for up to £100,000.
The writ also accuses Mr Yaqub of intimidation and trespassing on the Bordesley Green school site after the council disbanded the governing body he headed in May.
