New Delhi, July 16
Kafeel Ahmed, an accused in the failed UK terror plot, had a dream of constructing a housing complex on the outskirts of Bangalore city, where Shariat would have been the rule of law.

An analysis of his computer hard disk showed a detailed project in which Kafeel, who drove a blazing jeep into the Glasgow Airport, wanted to purchase a land of five acres in or around Bangalore, where a housing complex could be set up, officials carrying out his background check said.

They said, dream project of Kafeel showed that he wanted the Shariat law to be followed in letter and spirit at the proposed housing complex.

An engineer by profession, Kafeel, who suffered 90 per cent burns while trying to ram into the Glasgow Airport, had been visiting several religious and secessionist sites, including Jamat-ul-Dawa, parent organisation of militant outfit Lashker-e-Taiba.

Kafeel had also been attending religious meetings and opposed modernisation of Islam, the sources said.

In January this year, Kafeel had disrupted a meeting organised by a Bangalore-based organisation to discuss reforms in Islam. Security agencies were for the time being inclined to rule out Kafeel’s association with any of the deadly terror groups. — PTI
