Outlets around the world have been adding stories about the 21-minute YouTube video in which London Clifford Chance trainee Aysh Chaudhry refers to the Paris terrorist atrocity this month and says: 'We would not be here had it not been for the fact that the kuffar [a term for non-Muslims] had gone to our lands and killed our people and raped and pillaged our resources.' Roll on Friday said: 'Aysh Chaudhry spends his working day churning documents in CC's M&A dept and, it seems, his free time recording inflamatory videos.'

Rap version

Other YouTube account-holders have also started making copies of part of Mr Chaudhry's talk. These include a rap version. The media is also focusing on the response of Clifford Chance which has been refusing to discuss the fate of the trainee, Roll on Friday said. 

Innovation chief

Meanwhile, news about a new management appointment has been elbowed out by the coverage of Mr Chaudhry. Bas Boris Visser of the Amsterdam office is taking on the role of global head of innovation, a new position in the practice. Source: Daily Mail and Roll on Friday
