| Two suspects seized in anti-terrorist raids in Italy have links to the Finsbury Park mosque. Investigators are questioning the men who are believed to have worshipped at the north London mosque made notorious by radical cleric Abu Hamza. The men were detained in a raid targeting suspected al Qaeda militants across Europe. One is Rabei Osman Ahmed, 33, known as Mohammed the Egyptian, who is believed to have masterminded the Madrid bombings. Police believe Ahmed is an explosives expert who may have made the train bombs which killed 191 people and injured up to 2,000. He is said to have lived in Spain and had close ties to the suspected ringleader, Tunisian Serhane Fakhet. Ahmed was arrested in his Milan flat with 21-year-old Palestinian Yahia Payumi. Sources close to the investigation said: "We believe they had links to t he Finsbury Park mosque and other extremists who used the building." |
