Yeah about an hour sounds right, maybe a bit more even, as it was 20 mins before they realised he had gone and and another 25 mins before they informed the police!I heard it was an hour before they started looking.
I thought that too but apparently he was being held in Wandsworth awaiting trial, that's where the majority of terror suspects are held. After his trial, assuming he was found guilty and depending of what charges, he could have been moved to a more secure prison.I think if he really was selling information that was actually bought by Iran and he was an actual spy he would have been in a more secure prison and definitely not working as a chef. Unless they didn’t actually know the extent of it but from what we do know I’m leaning more towards he was a bit of a fantasist.
The Chiswick search is following confirmed sightings overnight.
His name seems to indicate Arabic rather than Iranian heritage. I wonder if he was caught in a sting operation where he was trying to sell to a high bidder and "Iran" was a taker rather than any direct link with Iran? Pure speculation on my part though, it goes without saying. But very interesting points throughout this thread.The name and appearance suggests some heritage from that part of the world, and Iran in particular are unlikely to trust anyone who doesn’t have a specific link to Iran beforehand.
Yes they initially reported Chiswick but it was Northolt. Greenford is just the other side of the canal.So the initial report said he was caught in Chiswick but now sky is saying it’s greenford. And I’ve also seen somewhere else that it’s northholt. Where was he??
I just saw this on Sky News... how can he even contemplate pleading not guilty when we all saw he did it?! 🫣He's pleaded not guilty to escaping custody![]()

Based on his surname and complexion, I'd assume half-Iranian. But that's just my guess.I've read some people state he has Iranian heritage. Has this been confirmed anywhere as fact? Or is it purely because he's suspected of spying for Iran?
hahhaha I literally came on here to say the same after just watched bbc news the reporter even corrected himself when he didn’t say itI can’t be the only one mildly amused by the fact the BBC are referring to his “alleged” escape
Iranian?Twitter thinks he's at the embassy. I know its twitter but seems logical.

How long was his original sentence? I wonder how much longer his sentence is going to be after thisDunno what he’s achieved by doing this apart from making his already shit and stupid situation even more shit and stupid
Yeah. They're saying its not far. Diplomatic relationships are strained....?The SAS guy was saying that he would likely stay low for few weeks before trying to leave the country.
