Terror suspect slips net in UK
An international terror suspect who had been under a controversial loose form of house arrest is on the run, said British Home Secretary John Reid on Tuesday. In a written statement to lawmakers, Reid said that the individual had absconded earlier this month. The individual, who was compelled to report daily to police and surrender travel documents, had “recently been radicalised and wanted to travel abroad for terrorism-related purposes”, said Reid. It was not believed that the person was a threat to the public, he added.
