The Metropolitan Police are carrying out searches in the UK after a suspected al Qaeda operative allegedly attempted to blow up a US passenger jet.
The man, said to be a student at a British university, is accused of trying to blow up a transatlantic aeroplane with explosives strapped to his leg on Christmas Day.
The Nigerian man caused panic as the jet was about to land at Detroit with 278 people aboard when he apparently tried to detonate some sort of bomb.
He was overpowered by passengers and crew after the device failed to ignite properly.
Sources have since told Sky News that the device was apparently hidden during transit in a pillow.

Witnesses said that they saw the suspect - who was in seat 19A - emerge from the toilet with a pillow held over his stomach and a syringe in his hand.
He then injected the syringe into something held in his stomach area, possibly a powdery substance, and smoke and flames quickly followed.

troubling.. knowing the only reason 300 people are still alive is that the bomb didn’t work.
Meanwhile, every convent and young girl therein is planned to
be searched internally.
This attack is a direct result of Hussein The Kenyan’s groveling to the muslim world.
The suspect had reportedly flown from Lagos, Nigeria to Amsterdam’s Schipol airport and transferred to Northwest Airlines - which is undergoing a merger with Delta Airlines - for the nine-hour flight to Detroit in an Airbus A330-300.
Before this is over the blame game will be global.
Meanwhile, the MUSLIMS have succeeded in making life more miserable for those who must travel by air and less profitable for the airline companies.
This attack is a direct result of Hussein The Kenyans groveling to the muslim world.
This muslim terrorist was also traveling on a one-way ticket paid with cash.
White House: Failed plane attack an attempted act of terrorism(Obama told 3 HOURS AFTER PLANE LANDS)
Where was he and/or what was doing for those three hours...?
Good gad. Was he really? And if so, that didn't single him out for some extra special attention?!
How about a Houston link examination first....he was in Houston in 2008.
“This muslim terrorist was also traveling on a one-way ticket paid with cash.”
Nothing to worry about here ;-)
"Mr. President, we had a terrorist indecent several hours ago but we handled it"
"We are loading your response onto the teleprompter as we speak"
Note to Joe Gibbs: Hope you’ve got a tick-tock ready, pard, in case some presstitute grows a pair.
Wasn’t interpol just warning UK about the fact that an incident was going to happen?
The Brits were concerned, not sure about Interpol. Then there was that thing with the Chunnel. And I’ve been wondering for weeks if Barry was in such a hurry to pass Obamacare because he knew we were about to have incoming.
They seem to be going after the Airbus, although they may all be targets of opportunity. The one in New Jersey right after 9-11 is suspecious, the one that disappeared in the Atlantic recently and now this one.
How did the Washington Redskins get involved in this issue?
Follow the money. How did a Nigerian man live in Houston and attend college in UK? Who is his benefactor?
