Former July 7 suspect knew two of the bombers

AN EGYPTIAN chemist freed on Tuesday after three weeks in custody for questioning about the July 7 bombings in London said he casually knew two of the attackers.

He called one of them “very kind and very nice”.

After his release, Magdy el-Nashar told reporters that he had nothing to do with the attacks, which killed 52 people and the four bombers.
