Policeman who dressed as bin Laden loses job

A senior British policeman who dressed up as Osama bin Laden is being recalled from his posting in Afghanistan.

Chief Superintendent Colin Terry from Devon and Cornwall Police wore a mask of the al-Qaida leader at a carnival, five days before the anniversary of the 9/11 terror attacks in America.

The officer has lost his job with an EU mission in Afghanistan and could face an internal inquiry.
