UK intelligence service MI5 approached

Woolwich killing suspect Michael

Adebolajo to offer him a job, a friend of

the alleged murderer claimed in a BBC interview. Shortly after his

statement, police detained the interviewee for questioning.

Abu Nusaybah, who claims to be a close friend of Adebolajo, was

promptly arrested on BBC premises following an interview regarding

the brutal kil ling in Woolwich on Wednesday. During the interview,

Nusayaba stated that Adebolajo told him MI5 had harassed him for

information on repeated occasions, and had even attempted to

recruit him.

But afterhim saying that he didn't know these individuals, what he said

was they asked him ifhe would be interested in working for them. He

was explicit in that he refused to work forthem but he did confirm he

didn't know the individuals,Nusayaba said.

The Metropolitan Police said in a statement on Friday that a 31-year-

old man had been detained in London under the Terrorism Act. Police

said the arrest was not directly related to Wednesdays murder.

MI5 acknowledged on Thursday that Adebolajo had been known to

them for eight years, prompting criticism that they could have taken

steps to prevent the murder of 25-year-old Army Drummer Lee Rigby.

Michael Adebolajo and Michael Adebowale are suspected of hacking

Rigby to death in broad daylight on Wednesday. The two suspects

were shot by police during their arrest, and are now in hospital

awaiting police questioning. Footage of Adebolajo surfaced showing

him brandishing a bloody cleaver, claiming the attack was an eye-

for-an-eyeact to avenge Muslims killed abroad by UK troops.

Nusayaba claimed that when he became acquainted with Adebolajo,

the murder suspect did not exhibit any extremist Islamist tendencies.However, following a trip to Kenya last year where Adebolajo was

allegedly taken into custody by the Kenyan military and was tortured

and sexually abused, Nusayaba said he changed.

He was not his bubbly self,Nasayaba said, adding that he became

less talkative following the trip.

Relatively little is known about the two suspects who committed the

atrocity in Woolwich on Wednesday, which was condemned in the UK

press as Baghdad-style violence.It was confirmed that Adebolajo

and Adebolawe are UK citizens from devout Christian families of

Nigerian descent, who later converted to Islam.

He was also known to hand out radical Islamist leaflets that decried

UK military involvement in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Police raided Adebolajos family home in Lincolnshire following thekilling. The family reportedly moved away from London over

concerns their son was becoming more radicalized.

There have been a number of arrests in London in connection with

Wednesdays murder. Detectives took a 29-year-old woman at a

residential address in south London into custody on suspicion of

conspiracy to commit murder on Thursday. A 29-year-old male was

also arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to commit murder.
