Osama bin Laden’s spin doctor plans to mentor young British Muslim children after his early release from jail
OSAMA bin Laden’s spin doctor plans to mentor young British Muslim children after his early release from a US jail.
Adel Abdel Bary, 64, was caged for 25 years for his role in two US embassy bombings that killed 224 and injured thousands in Africa in 1998.
The ex-lawyer was freed in 2020 after convincing a US court he was a Covid risk because he was so fat and he returned to Britain on “compassionate grounds”.
He lives off benefits with family in a £1million council flat.
The al-Qaeda fiend’s monitoring conditions do not bar volunteer work, yet a judge said in 2022 that his global terror past was a “powerful and enduring” indicator of risk.
His son, who joined IS, died in jail last year.
In an interview at a Birmingham youth centre, Bary told Islam21c — which claims to “educate and inspire” Muslims — that he wants to give kids “a vision”.
His interviewer adds: “He wants to go into mentoring.”
Counter Terrorism Policing said it worked with partners to combat “reoffending risk”.
Bary did not respond to a request for comment.
