Glasgow Airport attack man dies
2007-08-02
A story worth toasting
A badly burned man detained after the Glasgow Airport attack on Saturday 30 June has died in hospital. A spokeswoman for Strathclyde Police said that the man, seriously injured during the incident, died in Glasgow Royal Infirmary on Thursday evening. Kafeel Ahmed was one of two men held at the airport after a Jeep struck the terminal and burst into flames. The circumstances surrounding the death have been reported to the procurator fiscal.

The 27-year-old, from Bangalore, India, had suffered burns to 90% of his body when he was arrested. He was transferred to the specialist burns unit at Glasgow Royal Infirmary from the Royal Alexandra Hospital, in Paisley. He was being kept under armed guard and had been described by health officials as being in a critical condition. Contrary to earlier reports, Mr Ahmed was not a medic but an engineer with a PhD in design and technology.

#15  Poor dude.
I don't think God will be pleased with this burnt offering.
That is why He sent His Son Jesus to be the perfect offering for all time.
The dude just didn't get It.
There will be no duds in heaven.

#14  I'm truly saddened that his suffering couldn't be extended any longer.

(Of course I realize he was probably sedated most of the time and may not have been aware he'd survived half as long as he did--so it's just as well the medical professionals are freed up to help others who actually warrant their assistance.)

#13  Gee, O.J.Ahmed didn't get to the trial! Now we'll never know what the procurator fiscal would have done. (Whatever the heck that is)

#12  Have to disagree, #11 Zen.

Even though the dead clown is on tape committing the crime, there's still always an outside chance he's somehow not guilty - hence the "alleged."

There's no chance in hell that See-BS is or ever will be a news source.

#11  But to CBS he is only "alleged" to have been involved!!

Much like how CBS is an "alleged" news source.
