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
