Brit terrorist suspect to police during raid: "I have rights...I'm scared"

Unbelievable. The nerve of these self-absorbed cowards.

Suspect: I have rights

By VIRGINIA WHEELER, JEROME STARKEY and RICHARD WHITE

THE two terror suspects caught in West London demanded cops respect their HUMAN RIGHTS during the siege on their flat.

A witness said: “I heard one of them say ‘I’ve got rights’.”

And an astonished security source said: “We could not believe our ears when we heard them moaning about their human rights.

“What about the rights of the innocent people we believe they wanted to kill?

“What about the rights of the 52 people murdered by the four suicide bombers on July 7?”

Bus bomb suspect Muktar Mohammed-Said and alleged Oval Tube attacker Ramzi Mohammed also told police they were too scared to come out of their flat.

Delivery driver Alex Ospina — who lives on the estate where the arrests were made — said he heard one of the men shouting to police.

Alex, 31, said: “The police were saying ‘Come out’, but the guy was saying he was scared.

“He was saying: ‘How do I know you’re not going to shoot me like the guy in Stockwell Tube station?’

“The police told him: ‘That was a mistake, it’s not going to happen.’”

The speed of the police operation meant many terrified residents were trapped in their flats as cops stormed the building in Dalgarno Gardens, Notting Hill.

Stay back ... kids ushered away Stay back ... kids ushered away

One mum, who declined to be named, heard cops pleading with one of the men to get out.

She said: “Police were shouting something like: ‘Mohammed, get out, get out. Give yourself up.’

“The negotiations went on for about 30 minutes. The next thing I knew there was a huge explosion as police blew the doors off the apartment and rushed in.”

Videocam footage shot by one resident showed the moment the terror suspects were arrested. Both men emerged naked on a balcony, holding their hands in the air.

They were spitting and coughing from the effects of CS gas and smoke from the stun grenades.

One witness said: “The police slowly inched them back inside the flat.

“Both men had a look of absolute surrender. They appeared to be very shocked.”

Residents later saw one suspect being led away wearing a white police-issue boiler suit with plastic bags over his hands.

Resident Kay Major said: “Two officers in blue boiler suits were on either side of him. They walked slowly and got inside a Black Astra.

“The man had plastic bags over his hands and they held paper or cardboard over his face.”

One stunned estate resident told how he has been caught up FOUR times in the London bombings.

Dad-of-two Michael Hellings, 39, was injured in the Aldgate attack on 7/7. He was then evacuated from a mosque in East London after he went there to thank Muslims who had helped him.

He also walked past a park in Notting Hill when cops carried out a controlled explosion last week — and he LIVES on the estate raided yesterday.

Mr Hellings said: “These troubles seem to follow me around.

“I don’t know if I’m the luckiest man alive or the most unlucky.”

Police chief Peter Clarke, head of the Met’s anti-terrorist branch, last night thanked the public for their support and assistance during the probe into the bombings.

He urged anyone with information about the suspects to ring the police hotline on 0800 789321.

No wonder they were scared. All those infidel women were going to see their privates.

Somehow, the term "bastards" does not even minimally describe my feelings toward these Saddam-Osama wannabes.

Where's Boxer, Clinton, Kerry, Kennedy.....

Shouldn't they be over there making sure the terrorists rights are met?

After all; they want to do it here, why not there?

That's right, he's got rights....isn't islamic law an "eye for an eye"...once convicted strap the four of them together with a bomb, film the whole proceeding, send the tape to al jazera and tell them how much we respect their customs.

My thoughts exactly...Their handlers are the ones who better be scared. Infact I'm surprised they are still alive. Figured they would experience a "dead men don't talk" end from the higher ups. Hope they keep them safe in prison, so lthey can talk, and talk, and talk some more.

Let's pray this open a few more doors.

"Allah's "warriors" are sniveling little wusses unless they're up against women or babies."

Precisely! That's why they won't form an army to take on the peoples they wish to conquer and convert to Islam. They don't want to fight, they want to murder the weak and defenseless in the hope that the rest of us will cave in from fear. Like all their predecessors who tried to conquer the West they will lose, and be sent to hell in a handbasket.

Cowards. Jerks. They want the safety of civilized law, while trying to force their filthy bulls--t values on the rest of us. Terrorists need to go home and behead their own people, blow up their own children and beat their own wives. We don't need their lowlife crap here.

I would suggest a very large blasting cap placed in his rectum and set off. Followed by no medical assistance whatsoever. A slow and painful death just like the one that many of his victims would have experienced.

Unfortunately, in Europe, he has the right not to have his head cut off, even if convicted.

But I wonder how long that will last.

Hopefully not much longer. The Brits are quickly reversing the long slow slide down in the "wussification" process of past decades and are coming to realize that you cannot fight these morons any other way but with no mercy. Despite some criticisms of being way to nice and polite in this raid the truth is they took great pains to insure there will be no legal problems at all when the terrorists finally are in court. The four are well and properly screwed now. Well done Brits

The officer should have yelled back to him..

You have the right to yell... You have the right to be scared... You have the right to die before an attorney can be appointed to get you off.

‘How do I know you’re not going to shoot me like the guy in Stockwell Tube station?’

"That was a mistake. Once we're sure you're the guys we want, then we'll take you down and blow your brains out!"

The majority in England are still US haters and Islamic apologist.They will have their own Gitmo style problems soon with the socialist backed BBC at the head of the protest. England is second only to the US in being too easy with this scum.

Unbelievable. The nerve of these self-absorbed cowards.

That's not nerve, that's the arrogance of the true face of islam.

Unlike our leaders, I don't agree that hyenas like this one have rights.

Unless you mean a bullet to the head and a trip to the local dump.
