A SURREY man has been charged over comments allegedly made on social networks following the murder of drummer Lee Rigby.
Mohammed Mazar, 19, of Balmoral Drive, Woking was charged with improper use of a public electronic communications network on Friday night.
Neighbourhood Superintendent Matt Goodridge said: "Surrey Police will not tolerate language used in a public place, including on social media websites, which causes harassment, alarm or distress.
"Anyone who witnesses such behaviour should report the incident."
Mr Mazar had been bailed to appear at South West Surrey Magistrates' Court on June 11.
Drummer Rigby, a father of two who had served with the 2nd Battalion The Royal Regiment of Fusiliers, was killed in broad daylight on Wednesday afternoon.
