I'm Hamza said.
This is the Trojan Horse affair.
Here's what Hamza and I have figured out.
The Trojan horse affair wasn't a mistake.
The government didn't overreact simply because they'd failed to investigate the source of the Trojan horse letter.
It hadn't tricked them.
They hadn't actually missed the link to Adderley Primary School and Rizvan Adar, and then pressed ahead anyway with teacher bans, legal cases, school takeovers, enhanced national security policy.
To tell you the story of how we figured that out, we're gonna go all the way back to our very first week of reporting to an interview we did with a key figure in this saga.
The first person the Trojan horse letter was sent to, a man named Sir Albert Bohr.
It came to me in a brown paper envelope, unmarked.
There's nothing remarkable about the envelope.
The envelope just was addressed to me.
When the Trojan horse letter arrived in November 2013, Albert Bohr was the leader of the Birmingham City Council.
Hes not leader anymore, but hes still a council member.
