In Pictures: Umar Farouk Abdul Mutallab Takes Pity On Detroit

UMAR Farouk Abdul Mutallab, a 23-year-old Nigerian based in London, has been charged with trying to blow up a packed airline heading Detroit. Mr Mutallab was known to the US authorities but was not on the “no-fly list“.

Mr Mutallab seems to have tried to murder hundreds of people by setting fire to his leg. In economy. When Stage 1 of his cunning plan failed to kill everyone, as is alleged, he moved on to Stage 2, which under investigation US official may well discover involved him screaming “Fuck! My fucking leg’s on fire.” Stage 3 involved putting out the fire with litle sachets of wet wipes.

Abdul Mutallab, reportedly, claimed to have been acting on instructions from al Qaeda, which told him that he must set fire to his leg, it being his spiritual duty. Anorak was in London to see police enter a building in Mansfield Street, London to search for clues as to what drove a man called Umar to try to kill lots of “the enemy” (allegedly) and not waited until he’d landed in Detroit and discovered the the filthy Americans had suffered enough?
