LONDON – British police have arrested Abu Izzadeen, one of the UK’s most wanted terrorists, nearly a decade after he vanished from public view. Izzadeen, notorious for his extremist speeches and involvement in terror-related activities, was detained in London following an extensive manhunt.
He had previously been convicted on multiple terrorism charges, including inciting violence and promoting jihadist ideology. Authorities had been searching for him since 2015, shortly after his release from prison when he disappeared.
Officials described the arrest as a major success in the ongoing fight against terrorism. Izzadeen was taken into custody peacefully and is currently under investigation by security agencies.
Counter-terrorism officials warned that vigilance remains critical as extremist networks continue to pose threats domestically and internationally. The arrest sends a strong message about the UK’s commitment to rooting out radical elements.
