Father of Umar Farouk Abdul Mutallab, Nigerian terror suspect in Flight 253 attack, warned U.S.
The terror suspect who tried to blow up aDetroit-bound plane is the son of a Nigerian banker who alerted U.S. authorities to his “extreme religious views” months ago, it was reported Saturday.
The father, Alhaji Umaru Mutallab, a former minister and chairman of First Bank inNigeria, is shocked that his son was even was allowed to fly to the U.S., family members told the Nigerian newspaper This Day.
The dad was meeting with security officials to discuss his son, identified as Umar Farouk Abdul Mutallab, 23.
The younger Mutallab was not on any no-fly list when he flew from Nigeria to Detroit through Amsterdam, Rep. Pete King (R-L.I.)told the Daily News.When he tried to ignite powder strapped to his leg with a a chemical-filled syringe, he was tackled by a heroic passenger aboard Northwest Flight 253.
The passenger, Dutch video director Jasper Schuringa, told CNN he heard a big bang that sounded like a firecracker, then saw smoke and flames.
Dutch director Jasper Schuringa is being hailed as a hero for foiling the attack.
Schuringa said saw the man’s pants were open and he was holding a burning object between his legs.
“I pulled the object from him and tried to extinguish the fire with my hands and threw it away,” Schuringa said.
Schuringa grabbed Mutallab and pulled him to the front of the plane.
“He was staring into nothing,” Schuringa said.
Schuringa said he stripped off the man’s clothes to check for other explosives and a crew member helped handcuff him. Passengers apparently applauded his efforts as he walked back to his seat.
“My hands are pretty burned. I am fine,” Schuringa said. “I am shaken up.”

December 25, 7:42 PMAnn Arbor Islamic Issues ExaminerSakina Al-Amin
Today, Christmas 2009, a man was arrested for igniting firecrackers on a Northwest flight.
As the plane landed, a small explosion of what turned out to be fireworks went off, on the Metro Detroit airport runway. Minor injuries resulted, most of which seemed to be sustained by the culprit himself. One passenger is being treated at the University of Michigan hospital in Ann Arbor.
The assailant is said to be a Nigerian national. Explicit details surrounding his motive and intention are not yet known. The FBI is still in the process of investigating the incident but the White House is considering this occurrence an attempted terrorist attack.
In case this criminal is claiming to be Muslim, I, along with CAIR and my fellow examiners, condemn any acts of violence against civilians committed in the name of Islam or any God.
Our prayers and thoughts go out to all of the passengers on the Northwest flight today. Such acts are not in line with the spirit nor basic tenets of Islam.
