Burka Terrorist Uses Legal Aid Even Though He's On The Run

28th January 2014

I should think the leaders of most countries would just pick up the phone and end this joke in 5 minutes.

Please discuss.


A terrorist suspect who went missing after changing into a burka at a mosque has begun an appeal against measures taken against him to protect the public.

Mohammed Ahmed Mohamed, 27, who is said to have received al-Qaida-linked terrorist training in 2008, disappeared in November last year disguised as a woman.

Although his whereabouts are currently unknown, he has been granted legal aid, and his lawyers are asking three court of appeal judges in London to quash high court orders made in October 2012 upholding a decision by home secretary's to restrict his movements.

Mohamed is appealing jointly with a second terrorist suspect, referred to only as CF, who is said to have attempted in 2008 to travel to Afghanistan to fight jihad and engage in suicide operations.

Lord Justice Lloyd Jones ruled in 2012 that there were reasonable grounds for the home secretary to believe that the men had been involved in terrorism-related activity, including plans to target western interests in Somaliland in east Africa.

Both are British citizens of Somali origin. They are fighting the legality of control orders made for public protection under the Prevention of Terrorism Act 2005 and subsequent notices under the Terrorism Prevention and Investigation Act – the Tpim Act.

Their lawyers are arguing that the control orders and Tpims – used to restrict movement, the use of computers and mobile phones and to restrict who suspects can meet – are procedurally flawed on a number of grounds.

They are accusing the home secretary of failing to disclose sufficient information to give them a fair chance to fight the imposition of the orders.

The Tpim imposed on Mohamed expires on May 23 this year, while the similar order on CF expiredon 2 January.

If they win their appeals, it could lead to them claiming damages for human rights breaches relating to the orders.

The national lottery panel have given money to these charities that require the govt spending more money fighting these guys.

Don't expect the left to complain it is the left that give the money to them.

Common sense and decency not a trait of the left.
