Fanatic's mosque hideout By MICHEAL LEA and ANDREW PORTER January 17, 2007 COMMENT ON THIS STORY A BRITISH Muslim fanatic broke his control order and evaded cops by hiding in a MOSQUE. It is feared he has fled to Pakistan. He told pals he plans to train at an Afghanistan terror camp. The man vanished this month --- four days after a bid to prevent him leaving the country, Home Secretary John Reid said. He is the third extremist to disappear while under a control order and his actions heap more pressure on Mr Reid --- who is already rocked by the overseas crimes fiasco. Security sources said the recently-radicalised suspect was bent on fighting a jihad holy war. The Home Office is keeping his identity a secret. But he is believed to be a 26-year-old of Pakistani origin, living in Manchester. Shadow Home Secretary David Davis said the man could be a "threat to British troops abroad". He said: "If there is sufficient suspicion this man is involved in terrorist activities, there is sufficient suspicion to name him." Mr Reid told MPs in a written statement that the fanatic "wanted to travel abroad for terrorism-related purposes". He was supposed to report daily to police, hand in his passport and stay at a given address. But Mr Reid admitted he had absconded. He said: "He is not believed to represent a direct threat to the public in the UK at this time." Cops traced the man to a local mosque but he is thought to have already made his way to Pakistan using somebody else's passport. In October, two suspected Muslim terrorists under control orders went on the run. The orders impose a loose form of house arrest on suspected international terrorists. Mr Reid is under fire following revelations that offenders who committed crimes abroad had their details left off the national police computer when they returned here. Nine offenders got jobs in Britain as the vetting system could not see their backgrounds. +++ -------------------------- Want to discuss this topic?
