| Sudanese Man Arrested at London Airport |
| 2004-01-14 |
| A Sudanese native was arrested at Heathrow Airport on Wednesday on suspicion of possessing ammunition, police said. Oppression! Don’t you know possessing ammo is part of his religion? The 45-year-old man had arrived on a Virgin Atlantic flight from Washington D.C. and was in transit, a spokesman for London’s Metropolitan Police said. Somebody please have a chat with the baggage screeners in D.C. He was arrested under Section 1 of the Firearms Act after passing through a security check, the spokesman said. He did not describe the suspected ammunition but said it was undergoing forensic tests. A spokesman for BAA PLC, which operates Heathrow, said the man was trying to board a flight to Dubai when he was arrested. Isn’t carrying ammo to the Middle East a bit redundent? |
