Highest-ranking member of al-Qaeda Rangzieb Ahmed who is jailed in Britain may soon walk free

“I always said, he needs the trial to be fair and if he is convicted he should be sent down but you can’t torture a person. It’s against all laws, it’s completely wrong.

“I don’t think he’s involved, If he was like that I would never see or talk to him again. The brothers’ bond would be totally gone.

“No man has the right to kill another and this is my home, I was born here.”

The highest-ranking member of al-Qaeda to be jailed in Britain could soon be freed.

Terror boss Rangzieb Ahmed is thought to have had links to the bombers behind the 7/7 London Tube and bus atrocities of 2005.

Ahmed was jailed for being an al-Qaeda member and possessing a document for terror purposes.

He reportedly had links with the fanatics behind the 7/7 bombings in London on July 7 2005 which killed 52 people and injured 700.

He will appear before the parole board next month 11 years after getting a life sentence for plotting attacks.

Ahmed’s bid for freedom comes after terrorist Usman Khan, 28, killed Saskia Jones, 23, and Jack Merritt, 25, in London last Friday – less than a year after being released from jail.

Sentencing Ahmed, 44, of Rochdale, Gtr Man-chester, to life, Mr Justice Saunders said: “You are dedicated to the cause of Islamic terrorism. You are extremely ­dangerous.”
