London jihadi was reported to police TWICE, filmed at park with ISIS flag,”radicalized’ children with sweets and cash [VIDEO]

The still unnamed London jihadi was turned in twice, once by a neighbor and another time by a friend. Why wasn’t anything done? Because he was a devout Muslim, a holy man in a country that now places Islam above all else. And because law enforcement did not want to appear to “islamophobic” or “racist” (even thought Islam is not a race).

And why aren’t the British authorities naming these savages? Why does the daily Mail pixelate their faces. Respect!

“Amid a series of revelations last night, it was claimed that a friend of the suspect had reported him to the anti-terror hotline…..”

And he targeted children.

‘They were waiting for the children of the neighbourhood. They would give the children chocolate while talking to them. They would pray in the park for hours.’

And then this:

Police were warned about the main suspect radicalising children in a local park two years ago, a neighbour has revealed.

Erica Gasparri, an Italian mother of three who lives in the same complex, said she confronted the man, known locally as “Abs”, after her son came home and said: “Mummy, I want to be a Muslim.”

Gasparri then went to the park, where she said a “Pakistani man” had stated: “I’m ready to do whatever I need to do in the name of Allah. I am ready in the name of Allah to do what needs to be done, including killing my own mother.”

She said: “I took four photographs of him and gave them to the police. They rang Scotland Yard when I was there and said the information had been passed on to Scotland Yard. They were very concerned. They told me to delete the photos for my own safety which I did but then I heard nothing. That was two years ago. No-one came to me. If they did this could have been prevented and lives could have been saved.

“He would go down to the park and talk to them about Islam and he also came to the houses and gave the kids money and sweets during Ramadan.”

One neighbor actually tipped off the murderer that he had been turned in to the police. Doing her part to battle ‘islamophobia.’

By Stephen Wright and Chris Greenwood and Inderdeep Bains and Emily Kent Smith and Sam Greenhill for the Daily Mail and Gareth Davies and Martin Robinson, Uk Chief Reporter For Mailonline, 5 June 2017:
The London Bridge killer wearing an Arsenal shirt slipped through the net despite being reported to the police twice for extremism including trying to twist the minds of children he bribed with sweets and cash, it was revealed today.

The security services face difficult questions because the 27-year-old Muslim ringleader, known to friends as ‘Abz’, even appeared in a Channel 4 documentary last year about British jihadists and unfurled an ISIS-style flag in Regent’s Park.

He was also caught on camera alongside two notorious preachers who were well known to police and intelligence officials because of their extremist views.

A friend of the suspect called the anti-terror hotline because he became obsessed with watching hate preacher videos on YouTube and police were later warned he was trying to radicalise children in a local park and giving them treats to listen to him.

‘Abz’ also berated an Imam for encouraging worshippers to vote in the 2015 General Election and was banned from the mosque in the ensuing row.

A friend who called the anti-terror hotline said: ‘I did my bit, I know other people did their bit but the authorities did not do their bit’.

The suspect, who MailOnline has chosen not to name at the request of police, is one of three men who embarked on a stabbing rampage in London on Saturday night.

Gardai in Ireland have confirmed that an Irish ID card was found on the body of another of the killers – who is believed to have been born in Morocco but living in Dublin. Police say he was living in the Rathmines area of the Irish capital with his Scottish wife until around three months ago but he was not on their radar.

Scotland Yard says that it knows the identities of all the killers who murdered seven and injured 48 on London Bridge and inside Borough Market – but have asked the press not to name them.

A 27-year-old Muslim extremist involved in Saturday’s London Bridge attack appeared in a TV documentary last year about British jihadis – and was involved in a filmed altercation with police after an Islamic State flag was unfurled in Regent’s Park

Abz (whose face has been obscured) was also in the background when fellow protester Mohammed Shamsuddin, who was not involved in Saturday’s terror attack, had a furious row with police on the documentary

The Telegraph claims that counter-terrorism officers were watching a cell in Barking on the eve of the terror attack.

Second London Bridge attacker was a Moroccan carrying an Irish ID card

One of the London Bridge terror attackers was carrying an ID card issued in Ireland when he was shot dead, security sources in the Republic have confirmed.

Police chiefs in Dublin said they were liaising with counterparts in the UK amid reports that the killer had Irish papers.

‘An Garda Siochana is providing every assistance to our colleagues in the London Metropolitan Police in relation to the terror attack in London,’ a spokesman said.

‘We will process all requests from the UK authorities in relation to inquiries into individuals, identities or any other matter.’

There are unconfirmed reports that the man who had been carrying the Irish-issued ID may have claimed to be from Morocco and that he was married to a woman from Scotland and had lived in Dublin.

Gardai are investigating whether the ID card belonged to the dead man and if the documents are legitimate.

It is understood inquiries are continuing into whether the man was given an Irish ID card issued by the Garda National Immigration Bureau.

The plastic credit card-sized documentation is given to people from outside the EU. It has a person’s certificate of registration which states they have permission to stay in Ireland. It must be carried at all times.

There are also inquiries into whether the man had been given paperwork after landing in Ireland to claim asylum or if he had an ID card issued under EU treaties which allowed him to live in Ireland with his family.

Garda Commissioner Noirin O’Sullivan was holding a meeting with the force’s anti-terror and intelligence chiefs as they co-operate with the Met investigation.

Today Abz’s family asked to ‘grieve in peace’ as it emerged the terrorist held a farewell barbecue at his flat in Barking, where guests were handed cupcakes.

Neighbour Ramou Grant told Good Morning Britain: ‘Last week he called for a barbecue and invited all of us. [I’m] thinking, “was this a send-off?”.’

He was pictured, having been shot dead by police, lying on the ground in an Arsenal shirt.

One of his neighbours told MailOnline he was a ‘cheeky chappie’ before he became serious about Islam and his older brother was in the Territorial Army.

Aged eight he was knocked down with a car and broke his tooth and damaged his leg. He got a £2,500 payout and walked with a limp after that.

In 2013, the neighbour said he started to wear religious clothes. He used to go to the mosque over the road which she said was quite radical and lots of young men start going there and turn out extreme, she said.

His father died suddenly in 2002 and that affected him because he used to ‘took care’ to bring them up properly and make sure they didn’t stray.

The family were all on benefits but the father also worked selling fruit and veg at a stall in Queens Market in Upton Park. So they lost money when he died and the mother ‘didn’t really care’ about the kids, she said.

Salaudeen Jailabdeen, 40, who lives in a neighbouring block of flats, said the suspect had once been ejected from a local mosque for interrupting an imam. He then started preaching in his flat.

A spokesman for the Jabir Bin Zayd Islamic Centre said: ‘The imam was forced to ask him to leave two years ago.

‘He was giving a speech on the up-and-coming general election and the imam was explaining how it was important to vote wisely.

‘He got angry, complaining that it was nothing to do with him, and interrupted the imam. He was then asked to leave.’

But in a statement on its website, the mosque said: ‘We feel until the police release more information it is not appropriate for us to speak about anyone that may or may not have prayed here.’

Neighbours near the Barking flats where he lived said he had been well-known to the community.

Damien Pettit, 31, who said he could not be sure the man pictured was definitely his neighbour, said the man was ‘very much involved in the area’.

Yesterday a photographer captured a detective carrying secret notes which appeared to suggest he had been quizzed by police as recently as last year.

According to The Times, the Barking suspect had preached to people at his flat, worked on the transport network and worked for a few hours a week at an Islamic fitness centre where he also took part in boxing and taekwondo.

Housewife Erica Gasparri, 42, told The Times she had reported the suspect to police last year after challenging him in a park near a school.

She said: ‘They were waiting for the children of the neighbourhood. They would give the children chocolate while talking to them. They would pray in the park for hours.’

The attackers, who were wearing fake suicide bomb vests, used a van to mow down pedestrians on London Bridge before running amok with knives in Borough Market, slitting the throats of innocent bystanders. One is reported to have yelled: ‘This is for Allah.’

They left at least seven dead and 48 injured before police marksmen halted their stabbing spree.

Last night, chilling footage showed two of the attackers sauntering through a deserted Borough Market just moments after they abandoned the white van they used in the attack.
