THE SUN: A BRITISH soldier turned Islamic extremist has been arrested on suspicion of fraud.
Radical convert Abu Jibreel — who says drinkers should be whipped — is alleged to have pocketed donations for foreign war victims he collected outside mosques.
Ex-Irish Guard Jibreel, 39, formerly called Paul Steven Mellor, was arrested in Leyton, East London, over allegations of fraud and false misrepresentation.
He was quizzed by detectives yesterday [December 22, 2011] over claims he used a fake ID to collect cash by saying it was for victims in civil war-torn Somalia and Libya.
Cheshire-born Jibreel — one of hate preacher Anjem Choudary's acolytes and a one-time member of the banned Muslims Against Crusades group — is then alleged to have stolen the money. » | Mike Sullivan | Friday, December 23, 2011
