BBC News - Police bid to seize Manchester terrorist's family home

I would like to know if he bought the house with terrorist money? Under what grounds it was transfered to his wife/daughter? And why his wife did not divorce him to make sure she kept the house?

BBC News - Police bid to seize Manchester terrorist's family home

I would like to know if he bought the house with terrorist money? Under what grounds it was transfered to his wife/daughter? And why his wife did not divorce him to make sure she kept the house?

Surely he could have sold it to a trust in the Dutch Antilles, put the cash offshore and signed a secured tenancy lease denominated in a fast depreciating foreign currency?

[Mich the Tester]

The house is estimated to be worth about £200,000

Well, glad that bit's cleared up!

I want to know why two undercover police officers were trying to join jihadi groups in Afghanistan. I'm starting to think Theresa May has a point.

I want to know why two undercover police officers were trying to join jihadi groups in Afghanistan. I'm starting to think Theresa May has a point.

Munir Farooqi, from Longsight, Manchester, was given four life sentences in 2011 after he tried to recruit two undercover police officers for jihad in Afghanistan.

He tried to recruit them, but did they try to join?

Well, I doubt he just went down the local coppers' boozer and asked around to see if anyone was interested.

Is that what Theresa May does on a Friday night?

She won't any more, now she's locked in the boot of Dodgy's chocolate brown Ford Cortina.

In the USA entrapment is allowed - but I didn't think it was in the UK. Did the cops ask to be recruited?

I have heard of vans with back door open being planted near oxford street - so some form of entrapment is allowed.
