A British citizen named Haroon Rashid Aswat, living in Lusaka, Zambia is wanted for questioning in relation to the 7/7 London bomb attacks. 

Haroon Rashid Aswat comes from the same town in West Yorkshire, Dewsbury, where three of the alleged bombers lived. “He is suspected of visiting the bombers in the weeks before the attacks.” (New Republic, 8 August 2005).  

“Scotland Yard declined to shed any light on claims Mr Aswat was the possible mastermind of the July 7 attacks.”

Haroon Rachid Aswat is said to have played a central role in the London attacks:

“Cell phone records show around 20 calls between him and the 7/7 gang, leading right up to those attacks, which were exactly three weeks ago.” (Fox News, 28 July 2005)

Links to British Intelligence?

The same source (Fox News) which presents Aswat as the “mastermind”, also points to Aswat’s relationship to British and US intelligence, through a British based Islamic organization Al-Muhajiroun.
