One of the two terror suspects being held under armed guard at hospitals in London has been named as Michael Adebolajo.
The men were arrested following the hacking to death of a serving soldier in the street in Woolwich, southeast London.
Sky’s crime correspondent Martin Brunt said Adebolajo is a 28-year-old Londoner of Nigerian descent.
“He was born in Lambeth, grew up in east London. There are still members of his family living in the area.
“He was a
student at Greenwich University, but it is not clear what he was
studying there. Already on Facebook there are comments from former
pupils say that they went to school with him in east London.”
Police investigating the attack have been searching an address in Lincolnshire believed to be connected to Adebolajo.
Sky’s
Martin Brunt added: “We believe it is his father’s house that is being
searched by Lincolnshire Police on behalf of counter-terrorism command
at Scotland Yard.”
Counter-terrorism
officers are leading the investigation into the “shocking and horrific”
murder and the Prime Minister has held talks with his top advisers to
address potential security implications.
Relatives of the dead soldier are believed to have been informed and his identity is expected to be released later today.
The
Ministry of Defence said: “As a result of the incident in Woolwich, a
number of additional security measures have been put in place. As you
would expect, we would not talk about the details of these measures.”
Two
suspected Muslim fanatics attacked the man in the street a short
distance from the Royal Artillery Barracks after apparently knocking him
down with their car.
Witnesses
said they set about the soldier with a number of weapons, which appeared
to include knives and a meat cleaver, while shouting the name of
“Allah”.
there still high probability that the other one might be a NIGERIAN also
