Kafeel Ahmed, a suspect in the failed Glasgow Airport attack died of burn injuries in a hospital in UK early this morning.
London, Aug 3 : Kafeel Ahmed, a suspect in the failed Glasgow Airport attack died of burn injuries in a hospital in UK early this morning.
The twenty-seven-year-old aeronautical engineer from Bangalore succumbed at the Glasgow Royal Infirmary, unable to recover from the 90 per cent burns that he got during the June 30 airport attack. He had been in critical condition since the attack, and was kept under armed police guard.
Kafeel is believed to have worked at the Anglia Ruskin University in Cambridge, and was reportedly a member of the Tabhleegi Jamaat.
His brother, Sabeel Ahmed, 26, has also been charged with withholding information that could have led to an act of terrorism, and is currently in police custody in Britain.
Iraqi doctor Bilal Abdullah has already been charged with conspiring to set off explosions.
Kafeel's second cousin, Dr. Mohammed Haneef, who was incarcerated in Brisbane from July 2 to July 27, over the foiled bomb attacks in the United Kingdom, was cleared of a terror-related charge by an Australian court last week.
