Killer Of British Soldier Says He Is Soldier Of Allah by etenyong(m): 9:37pm On Dec 04, 2013
A man accused of hacking a
soldier to death on a London street told police he
was a “soldier of Allah” fighting a war against
Britain but that the killing brought him little joy, a
court heard Wednesday.
Michael Adebolajo, who is on trial with Michael
Adebowale for the brutal murder of Lee Rigby near
his barracks in the south London district of
Woolwich in May, made the comments during
interviews with police after his arrest.
Adebolajo has been asked to be referred to as
Mujaahid Abu Hamza in court.
In recordings of the interviews shown to the jury at
the Old Bailey criminal court in London, 28-year-old
Adebolajo blamed his actions on “wicked” leaders
such as Prime Minister David Cameron and his
predecessor Tony Blair.
Asked by detectives to describe the killing, during
which the two men allegedly hit Rigby with a car
before attacking him with knives, Adebolajo said the
soldier’s head was “almost detached and may Allah
forgive me if I acted in a way that is displeasing to
him”.
In another interview, during which he had a blue
blanket over his head, Adebolajo said the killing was
“for those people who have not yet understood the
nature, the nature of the war that’s ongoing and
has been ongoing for some many years between
the Muslims and the British people”.
He went on: “Your leaders, you have leaders who
rule over you, unfortunately they rule over you in a
very wicked, corrupt, selfish and oppressive
manner.”
Adebolajo said he was “particularly disgusted by
David Cameron, the Miliband brothers and what’s-
his-name, Nick Clegg”, referring to opposition
Labour leader Ed Miliband, his brother David, and
Liberal Democrat Deputy Prime Minister Clegg.
He also spoke of the “wickedness and corruption” of
Blair, who took Britain in to the US-led invasion of
Iraq in 2003. Cameron, he said, was “trying to
emulate the footsteps of Tony Blair as if he
worships him”.
But he added that it brought him “little joy to
approach anybody and slay them”.
Rigby’s widow Rebecca left the court in tears as the
interviews were played.
A psychiatrist’s report read to the court earlier on
Wednesday found that Adebolajo showed “no regret
or remorse”.
Adebolajo and 22-year-old Adebowale both deny
murder.
