Omar Khayam AKA Skinner wears bulky jacket like bomber and isn't murdered by Police thugs

Omar Khayam 22, was sentenced to 6 years in prison in 2002 for possessing crack cocaine and heroin with intent to supply.

He was released on parole in the care of ( a now presumably very nervous) probation officer last June.

To fellow prisoners at Springhill Prison, Bucks he was known as “Skinner” according to a report in the Mirror today …” He was part of a large crew in Bedford. His street name is Skinner and there are a lot of drug users in the town who know him through these connections.” According to Khayam's prison Boswell he was radicalised in prison and said he was going to use the money from dealing for Islamic causes....yeah...yeah.

Curious how Bedford / Luton / Aylesbury keeps cropping up when Islam militancy, “suicide” bombers , drug crime Al Muhajiroun keeps cropping up.

Anyway young Omar is not without contacts and appeared outside his home yesterday in Bedford accompanied by the chairman of his local mosque and his local MP. He claimed to the attending Press / TV scrum he had not intended to cause offence to the victims of the July 7 London bombings or their relatives but added that his protest remained valid because of the hurt caused to Muslims by the publication of the Danish cartoo ns. Those familiar with the dress code , mobile telephony techniques and hair/facial hair styles of the Asian drug community may have identified a few clues from the “can you see me mother” crowd immediately behind him.

Evidently especially despatched Plods from crack crime busters at the met found nothing and returned without contacting the profoundly humble paroled street actor / clown, and now presumably ex-drug dealer.

For previous postings on the Luton connection here see
including Muktar Saed Ibrahim, also known as Muktar Mohammed Saed, 27, who was named by police in connection with the attempted attack on the No 26 bus in Hackney, East London, last Thursday.

In 1996 he was jailed for a series of street robberies (he was then 18), including one in Melbourn Street, Luton in May 1995 (Melbourn is a village outside Royston), and may also have been involved in incidents in Stevenage, Letchworth and Welwyn Garden City.

The local paper the Mercury learnt that the alleged would-be bomber was part of a gang who appeared at Luton Crown Court in February 1996 and pleaded guilty to several charges.

It is believed that when Ibrahim appeared in court with two of his accomplices he had already received a three-year prison sentence from a court in north London for similar offences.

At Luton, he pleaded guilty to a charge of attempted robbery, one charge of robbery and another count of handling stolen goods.

Saed is now detained at HM Pleasure whilst Plod tries to find a case to present in court in September - despite the bomb he planted not causing any damage and the non removal of local residents from the area of the bus with a powerfully destructive bomb in it.

No wonder Plod has a puzzled look.

PS for Plod. Remember those "suicide bombers" on 7/7 might have caught a train at Luton and left all those mouth watering "bombs" which made such a graphic icon for the worldwide press in the boot of their hire car ?
