Clapham chemical attack: Suspect last seen on Victoria Tube line, say police

The Clapham chemical attack suspect was a good Muslim despite claiming he had converted to Christianity to claim asylum in the UK, his friends have told The Telegraph. Abdul Shakoor Ezedi, 35, told a shopkeeper at his favourite Middle Eastern speciality food store where he bought Halal meat how he planned to one day return to Afghanistan to find a wife. Staff at the Byker butcher shop in the east of Newcastle, where Ezedi lived for about a year, said they were horrified that the pizza takeaway chef had been connected to the attack because he was a good Muslim. Speaking on condition of anonymity, the Halal butcher, who is a Kurdish Iranian, said Ezedi would pay 50 to 60 for a half a Halal sheep which he put in his freezer and would last a couple of weeks. , london, crime, police Follow for more live coverage here: Subscribe to The Telegraph with our special
