UK: 2 doctors face car-bomb terror trial in London
By SHAWN POGATCHNIK – 6 days ago

LONDON (AP) — Two doctors charged with trying to bomb a Glasgow airport and London's West End will be portrayed by prosecutors as terrorists in thrall to a fundamental form of Islam, a jury in London heard Wednesday.

Justice Colin Mackay also instructed jurors to set aside their prejudices and prepare for "an interesting case."

Bilal Abdulla, 29, and Mohammed Asha, 28, have been in jail awaiting trial since the abortive June 2007 attacks. The Iraqi-raised Abdulla and Asha, a Jordanian, had worked in British hospitals since 2004.

Two poorly designed car bombs abandoned outside West End night spots on June 29, 2007, failed to detonate. They were discovered only accidentally — one when paramedics spotted it emitting smoke, the other after it had been towed away by traffic enforcement officials. Police said both contained drums of fuel, packs of nails, timers and detonators.

The following day, an attempted suicide car-bomb attack on Glasgow International Airport caused only one death — that of attacker Kafeel Ahmed, who suffered lethal burns while trying to ignite a propane-based bomb on board his vehicle.

Indian-born Ahmed was the alleged driver of the sports-utility vehicle that rammed into security barriers outside the airport, while Abdulla was the alleged passenger. Police suspect that Abdulla and Ahmed also delivered the West End car bombs.

Asha was arrested hours after the Glasgow attack while driving with his wife on an English highway, and police subsequently identified him as a likely ringleader based on cell-phone and other electronic records.

Abdulla and Asha face identical charges of conspiring to commit murder and cause explosions from January 2006 to July 2007. Both deny the charges.

Asha's father and brother, who live in Amman, Jordan, have rejected police descriptions of him as a Muslim extremist, and insist he was a political and religious moderate hoping to pursue a career in Britain as a neurosurgeon.

But Mackay told jurors at Woolwich Crown Court in southeast London that prosecutors would characterize Abdulla and Asha as "terrorists motivated by their belief in a fundamental form of Islam." The prosecutors' opening statement is scheduled for Thursday.

The judge warned the jury to reach its verdict "based solely on the evidence it hears as it is given in this court, and not based on any prejudices, beliefs or personal opinions." He predicted that the jurors "will find it an interesting case to try."

The case is expected to run for eight to 10 weeks.

So far, only one person — Ahmed's younger brother Sabeel, also a doctor practicing in Britain — has been convicted in relation to the June 2007 threats. He served half of an 18-month sentence after pleading guilty to concealing information about the attacks and was deported to India in April.

During his trial, Sabeel Ahmed admitted that he received an e-mail from his brother but claimed he did not see it until the day after his brother had suffered horrific burns at the airport terminal.

"This is the project that I was working on for some time now. Everything else was a lie," Kafeel Ahmed's e-mail read. "It's about time that we give up our lives and our families for the sake of Islam to please Allah."
