webfact Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 British national arrested in Nairobi mall attackLONDON: -- A British national has been arrested in Nairobi following the mall siege that killed at least 67 people, the Foreign Office in London said on Wednesday.According to the Daily Mail newspaper, a 35-year-old Briton of Somali origin was arrested at Nairobi's Jomo Kenyatta airport as he attempted to leave Kenya on a Turkish Airlines flight.A Foreign Office spokesman declined to comment on the report, saying only that the British authorities were aware of the arrest of a Briton in the Kenyan capital and stood ready to provide consular assistance.A Kenyan anti-terrorism police unit source also told Reuters that a British citizen of Somali origin was detained after he missed his flight at the Nairobi airport, and was now being questioned. He gave no more details. The Daily Mail said the man had attracted attention at the airport because he had bruising to his face, was wearing dark glasses and was behaving suspiciously.The newspaper quoted Kenyan officials as saying the man's British passport appeared to be genuine and it contained a Kenyan visa, although there was no stamp indicating when and how he had entered the country.

Basil B Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Why do they describe him as British, I am assuming he is dual nationality? Why can they not do away with the dual nationality thing, I see reasons for multi nationality but the nationality to which a person has the greatest rights should be their primary which can never be taken away from them and they can not surrender, any other nationality should be classed as secondary and if a person commits serious criminal offences, then any secondary citizenship rights could be canceled and they would not be stateless.

wellred Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Well we know the former wife of one of the 7/7 bombers was there and killed in the operation. Not hard to believe she would have possibly helped recruit from the uk. The religion of peace and love strikes again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay Sata Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 He'll be probably getting a lot more help than drug mule Lyndsay Sandiford who got done carrying the case full of drugs from BKK to Bali. The BBC won't even call the murdering mob terrorists preferring to use words such as militants and insurgents instead. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lostmebike Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Another successful asylum seeker thanks to the labour party policies. Thanks, Tony Blair. Couldn't agree more. For a man that was forever harping on about his 'legacy', would love to sit him down now and hear his definition of this word in light of the results of most of his policies from his time in power. What a man! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post MartinL Posted September 26, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted September 26, 2013 The BBC won't even call the murdering mob terrorists preferring to use words such as militants and insurgents instead. This unwillingness of the BBC to call these scum "terrorists" rather than the milder insurgents & militants - on a par with comparatively harmless Trade Union militants - has produced some negative comment in some UK papers. I had this in mind last night when I watched an interview with an ex-SAS member & security expert - involved in ending the Iran Embassy siege in London some years ago - who repeatedly called these followers of the Religion of Peace ( ) "murderers" & "terrorists" and I couldn't help but wonder just what the programme's producers might be thinking when he used those words, violating the BBC's apparent directive that the word "terrorist" shouldn't be used . 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my opinion, they're all as bad as each other regardless of political persuasion. The tories are all talk about getting tough on immigration but nothing ever changes, it only gets worse.

Well done, well done. Well all gravy trains must come to an end,and this one is on it's sell by date! Greater chance he will get his just desserts where he is than under the protection of British legal system, not too many rights for this lot when and where they are and precious little sympathy. He may not be guilty but I would doubt that he is innocent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"And this man is far from a ordinary British Citizen!". Along with other quotes in this thread are spanking of racism. He is a British passport holder...that is all you should be reacting to....he is allowed no more, no less of the services from the British Consulate than you or me or anyone carrying a British passport. So explain to me how he is not an ordinary British passport holder......What is an ordinary British Passport holder....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honkytowner Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 I imagine the only consular assistance this guy will get is into restraints and onto a flight to wherever it is the Brits apply their "enhanced interrogation" techniques.

7by7 Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 All British citizens arrested abroad are entitled to consular assistance. The two drug smugglers in Peru received it. But that 'assistance' doesn't amount to much! See page 17 of this leaflet. This does not mean the British government has any opinion on that person's guilt or innocence. I see that the lynch mob are out in force yet again. Whatever their claimed motives, their claimed aims, their claimed mandate; these terrorist criminals do not represent ordinary Muslims. Indeed, they are frequently condemned by Muslim clerics, scholars and leaders. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I happen to believe that the rights and protections afforded to British citizens should be applied equally to all; regardless of their race, colour or creed. You obviously don't. One of those rights is the assumption of innocence until proven guilty. I have no idea of any particular individuals involvement in this crime; that is for the, presumably Kenyan, courts to decide. Remember that he was arrested at the airport, not the mall. Some people seem to have the attitude that he is black, he's Muslim; therefore he's guilty! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
