Doctor jailed for life over failed car bomb attacks

Bilal Abdulla, a 29-year- old physician with Britain’s national health service (NHS), will serve at least 32 years in prison for plotting to murder hundreds of people in two botched terrorist attacks in London’s theatre district and on Glasgow airport.

Police and security officials say the attacks in June 2007 may have been timed to coincide with the departure from office of former British leader and US ally Tony Blair earlier in the same week.
