The Al-Fourqaan mosque in Eindhoven was reported to have young men recruited by the Algerian terrorist group Groupe Salafiste pour la Prédication et le Combat, and drew attention for its jihadist imam. Earlier snapshots said men were "reportedly recruited by Algerian terrorist group Groupe Salafiste pour la Prédication et le Combat to fight in the holy war," and that the mosque drew media attention "for its jihadist imam." Today's opening describes only a Salafi mosque established in the 1990s, with no mention of the GSPC recruitment or the jihadist imam; the word survives four times elsewhere in the article. A reader today does not learn from the opening that the mosque was reported to be linked to a designated terrorist group's recruitment or that it had a jihadist imam who drew intelligence attention.

Intelligence service AIVD classified him as a threat to national security, and minister for integration and immigration Rita Verdonk responded by banning him from the country as an 'unwanted foreigner'. Initially an Amsterdam court ruled that the imam could stay, but on 27 April 2007 the Council of State finally ruled Bersham would be banned from the Netherlands for the next ten years. Two other men regularly prayed in the Al-Fourqaan mosque; Ahmed El Bakiouli and Khalid El Hassnoui.
