Mr Afzal announced the resignation on his Twitter account, saying he would not be “saying anything publicly”.
But the BBC has claimed his departure is connected to a “row over media coverage of terror attacks”.
On the day of the horrific Manchester Arena explosion which claimed the lives of 22 innocent people, Mr Afzal tweeted:
“Manchester is my home now & my heart breaks for those who lives were taken by deluded narcissistic criminals who will never divide or defeat us.
The following day, Mr Afzal tweeted:
“I prosecuted terrorists of all motivations. They’re not soldiers. They’re sad narcissists- thinking the world owes them. We owe them nothing.”
And posting a photo of Manchester city centre, he added:
“Terrorists want us to change our lives because of them.They lose when we don’t.”
