21 July plotter's fiancee jailed
Fardosa Abdullahi, the fiancee of 21 July bomb plotter Yassin Omar, has been jailed for helping him to escape dressed in her mother's burka.
Omar and three others attempted to detonate rucksack bombs on three Tube trains and a bus on 21 July 2005.
CCTV footage at Omar's trial showed the 6ft 2in man wearing the burka. He had also shaved his arms to look feminine and was carrying a white handbag. I suppose the wrists might be revealed as he delved in the handbag for change. I like the touch of the white handbag; was it to dance round later and did he also wear the matching stilettos?
Abdullahi is now pregnant and has a long history of mental illness, but Judge Paul Worsley rejected a plea that she should be spared jai.
He said: "The message must go out that this court will not go soft on those who assist terrorists even those who are young, vulnerable and under pressure, as you undoubtedly were."
Who is she pregnant by? Has she married Omar in prison or someone else? Otherwise she is probably safer in prison than having her brothers come for her.
