Friend Of London Terror Suspect Arrested After Bbc Interview

[News_Editor]

LONDON, ENGLAND (BNO NEWS) -- A friend of Michael Adebolajo, one of two suspects in the brutal murder of a British soldier on a London street earlier this week, was arrested by counter-terrorism police on late Friday evening after giving an interview to the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC).

Abu Nusaybah was interviewed by BBC journalist Richard Watson on Friday evening about his relationship with Adebolajo, who was seen talking to bystanders after he allegedly participated in the savage murder of British soldier Lee Rigby near the Royal Artillery Barracks in London.

Immediately after the interview, at around 9:30 p.m. local time on Friday, officers from the Metropolitan Police Service's Counter Terrorism Command arrested Nusaybah on BBC premises in London. He was taken into custody under the Terrorism Act 2000 on suspicion of the commission, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism, police said.

It was not immediately clear why Nusaybah was arrested under the Terrorism Act 2000, and a BBC spokesperson said it had not been aware that he was wanted for questioning. "This interviewee had important background information that sheds light on this horrific event," the unnamed spokesperson said, referring to Wednesday's murder that has been described as a terrorist attack by authorities.

During the interview, Nusaybah said he became friends with Adebolajo in early 2002 when they were both living in the town of Romford near London. Nusaybah said he converted to Islam in late 2004 and that Adebolajo independently did the same about four months after him.

Also during the interview, Nusaybah claimed Adebolajo had recently been picked up by Kenyan security forces and physically assaulted while in detention there. Officers from the British intelligence agency MI5 then repeatedly visited his house after his return to Britain, Nusaybah said.

"He mentioned that initially they wanted to ask him if he knew certain individuals. That was the initial issue, but after him saying he didn't know these individuals and so forth, they asked him whether he'd be interested in working for them," Nusaybah told the BBC, adding that he did not work for MI5 but told officers he did not know the individuals asked about.

A Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) spokesperson said Nusaybah was taken to a south London police station after his arrest on late Friday evening and remained in custody on Saturday afternoon. "Search warrants are being executed at two residential addresses in east London," the spokesperson said, giving no other details.

Lone wolves, the lot of em.

Not surprising, that anyone who publicly declares any type of interaction or relations

with Michael Adebolajo will be arrested or taken in for questioning by the CT police.

They need to find as many of these radicals as possible and take them out of society.

Well I think they nabbed him because he said MI5 offered a job. That wasn't the wisest little secret to give away. I think they want to know what other secrets the terrorist told him, and maybe who else he told.

According to BBC World News The Kenyan government are insisting Michael Adebolajo has never visited Kenya.

No secret that the route into Somalia to join Alsheebab is through Kenya.American Somalies use this route as well as the British Muslims who want to go to a proper war zone for their beliefs. Why do our dummy governments interveine,if they want to go die fighting or starving to death in Mogadishu,let them be. Rather have them over there than walking the streets of London or U.S.A.

Not unusual to read in today's newspapers that his family blame MI5 for his behaviour,maybe they can sue MI5 for pressurising him.

Problem is those that survive and return to their country of origin will likely return as hardened killers, with skills in urban warfare. Western goverments should use every means possible to identify them, stop them going to war zones, training camps and so on..If necessary detain them as a threat to national security

We do not often read about developed nation's citizenry, law enforcement or military hacking Islamic immigrants to death or slicing their heads off, whether they be from African or Middle Eastern Nations; but we sure do get a boatload of news about Islamic people hacking to death or beheading people.

It makes me wonder if we are not already entered into a new era of crime, which pushes and provokes a developed nations' sense of human decency, morals and ethics to the brink of sanity and self-restraint. Of course, I describe a developed nation that has for generations consisted of a majority of one particular race of peoples, and not ever having had its culture upset by another race of people immigrating at such a rate as to knock it off balance.

The UK for many generations consisted of the Anglo race. It is now taking on immigrants of other races at such a rate that the cultural behaviors of these races are knocking the UK's sense of culture out of balance. Crime is shooting off the charts. The method of these crimes is heinous. Entire neighborhoods are DMZ's and any white person of UK citizenry had better stay out if they value their life.

If this is any indication of what interracial mixing of cultures (via mass immigration) in major city epicenters will turn out to be like, then I am compelled to trample on political correctness and re-evaluate the practicality of accepting cultures that bring about more harm than good; moreover their impact on the economy and society in general places an impossible weight to bear on the necks of those, who for generations have shed their blood, sweat and tears to mold their nation into greatness; only to fall victim to to their own sense of charity and compassion, and have it ripped to pieces by those on the receiving end of that charity and compassion along with their loved ones, their society, their morals and ethics, and the spirit that made them great.

It seems about as regrettable as putting Japanese Fighting Fish into a bowl full of Guppies. What's even more regrettable is that I expect the guppies to be torn to pieces, but I emphatically do not expect humans to allow themselves or their culture (their very identity) to be torn to pieces by aliens who are born with that purpose in mind if one does not happen to subscribe to their ways or appear like them.

I'd like to say good luck to those Brits who have been there for generations to make their country great, but in fact, you are bringing this on yourselves with your sit-back attitude, and therefore I cannot sympathize with your guppy mentality. I cannot imagine that your ancestors (may their souls rest in peace) would sit idly by and let these atrocities encroach upon that which they strove so hard to fashion with their ultimate sacrifices. The very morals and ethics that they forbade from entering into their culture is now besetting the culture that they fashioned. Compromise, veiled by words like charity and compassion is your undoing. Compromise tears down the walls that were originally set up in order to make good neighbors. However, to those who stand up and fight, I tip my hat with reverence and respect.

On a final note; it seems ironic that once you were Empire, and now Empire has come home to roost in an equally opposite inverse.
