Former UK minister attacked by knife-wielding Muslim woman
Former British minister and senior Labour MP Stephen Timms escaped death narrowly after being attacked by a knife-wielding Muslim woman, a resident of his constituency.
The woman who was not identified lunged at him and stabbed him twice in the stomach as Timms held a meeting for his constituents in his East London constituency yesterday, before one of aides bravely overpowered the woman, wearing a Muslim full dress and scarf, police said.
Had to search through a bunch of articles and go to an Indian source to find out the perp is a muslim. None of the British news saw fit to include that little gem and gave only the vaguest hint: UK Telegraph:
''A 21-year-old woman was arrested at the scene and is currently in custody at an east London police station.''
