PUBLISHED: 11:01 EDT, 5 June 2017

CNN has denied claims it positioned anti-extremism demonstrators behind its cameras to 'create a narrative', insisting the group arrived to be seen by TV cameras

The protesters insist they went to the site on their own initiative and were not manipulated

Chairman of the London Fatwa Council, Mohammad Raza, said the protesters went to police cordon themselves to show that they opposed religious extremism

The group went to the scene to lay flowers and show signs saying '#turntolove' and #forlondon'

The protesters also appeared at the side of the BBC's coverage of the terror attack aftermath The BBC panned onto the group at the same police cordon as where CNN were filming

CNN has denied online claims that it 'set up' a counter-extremism demonstration behind one of its reporters.

A group from the London Fatwa Council came to the police cordon near the London Bridge terror attacks with banners proclaiming 'ISIS will lose' yesterday afternoon.

But a video which emerged of the group apparently being positioned by TV reporters led to claims online that the channel was 'creating a narrative'.

The video shows the group being ushered past the media and positioned so that cameras can see them.

Reporter Becky Anderson mentioned the protesters' signs in her news report on the terror attack.

She said: 'Behind me you can see a sign here, hashtag 'turn to love'', hashtag 'for London', hashtag 'ISIS will lose', and flowers left in remembrance of those who left their lives.'

She called the demonstrators a 'poignant scene' and urged the camera to pause on them to viewers 'how people feel here on the streets of London'.

The man who filmed the footage, a Twitter user called @markantro, tweeted: 'CNN creating the narrative #FakeNews'
