Today documents reveal the lies that were spread by the Poppy Day bomber by an immigration official days after his arrival in the UK with a fake Jordanian Passport.
Emad Al Swealmeen was an asylum seeker, who converted to Christianity after arriving in the UK in 2014. His application for asylum was rejected in 2015, however, another appeal was ongoing at his time of death.
It was shocking to learn that today’s new revelations reveal that the 25-year-old failed asylum seeker told immigration officers he had falsified his visa and passport in a screening interview only days after his arrival in Britain.
The bomb exploded in his taxi, killing him just hours before 11. David Perry, taxi driver, was able to escape without serious injuries.
Al Swealmeen is suspected of having planned to attack mourners and veterans outside the Liverpool Cathedral, where he converted from Christianity in 2017.
MailOnline received a statement from the Home Office confirming that it was examining urgently the leakage of “sensitive documents relevant for an ongoing criminal investigation”.
Today, it was revealed that Al Swealmeen’s extended family wished that he would have survived the attack to be executed for his actions.
Emad Al Swealmeen was an asylum seeker, who had converted from Christianity to Islam. He arrived in Britain in 2014 after arriving in the Middle East. His application for asylum was rejected in 2014. However, there was a new appeal currently being made at the time of his passing.
The Sun has obtained a 35 page Home Office dossier. The document shows Al Swealmeen’s ability to spin elaborate lies in order to fool immigration officials. He was able to continue living in Britain seven years after his original application was denied.
The fanatic claimed he was from Syria, in order to obtain the right to reside in the UK. He cited “psychological problems” and threatened to kill officers if he wasn’t granted refugee status.
He was questioned by border staff about his Syria visit, travels to Jordan and Jordanian passport. Then he had to confess.
Al Swealmeen received a formal warning from investigators, stating that he had lied to the UK about his intentions.
A year later, his formal asylum application was denied. He was also refused the right of appeal in 2017.
These shocking revelations come after police discovered that Liverpool bomber Emad al Swealmeen began building his bomb factory at a rented bedit in April.
Other desperate attempts for asylum were made by his brother, who converted to Christianity after being baptized and confirmed in Liverpool Cathedral in 2017.
According to immigration sources, Al Swealmeen tried to murder women and children on Remembrance Sunday by using a false identity. He also made numerous appeals for asylum to be removed from the UK.
Al Swealmeen was killed when he set off an explosive device inside a taxi in front of the Liverpool Women’s Hospital at 11:01 on November 14. David Perry, taxi driver, was able to escape without serious injuries.
Al Swealmeen is believed to have grown up in middle-class environments in Jordan, Iraq, and Dubai where his family still resides today.
Al Swealmeen’s uncle said to Al Swealmeen that Al’s mother and father were both good men after the news spread.
In April, he moved in to his apartment in Kensington’s asylum seekers accommodation. It is here that he is thought to have constructed the device.
Today was the first day that the victim of the attack, a taxi driver, made public his thoughts, calling it a miracle that he is alive.
David Perry, his wife Rachel and their statement was released by police. They thanked everyone for their “amazing generosity” in the aftermath of the Remembrance Monday attack.
David Perry (a taxi driver) survived the attack and made his first public comment today.
In his statement, the taxi driver said that he was grateful to all for sending him well wishes. This is amazing.
‘A special thanks goes to staff at Liverpool Women’s Hospital and Merseyside Police and Counter Terrorism Policing.
“I feel miraculous that I live and am so grateful that no other person was inflicted by such an evil act.
“I am now able to accept what has happened, and to focus on my mental and physical recovery.
Please be patient, remain vigilant and safe.
The incident is being investigated by police. While an Islamist plot may be one avenue of investigation, detectives remain open-minded and are trying to determine the motive.
According to security officials, they are continuing to investigate the possibility that the hospital had been intended as a target.
