He was brainwashed, otherwise he was a very good human being, this is what Hasina Patel, the widower of the gang leader of the July 7 suicide bombings thinks about her husband.
I pray for him because I feel there was a good person in there but feel he was probably misled and brainwashed by the wrong people
Although, she’s full of sympathy with the bomb victims yet she denies her ’shauhar’, Mohammad Sidique Khan, to be in league with the evil perpetrators.
She divulged that he had stocked up more than $800 to buy toys for their ‘children’ not knowing that the second and the expected one underwent miscarriage on the morning of the bombings.
Musing over to the harrowing day of London bombings, she disclosed how she developed certain apprehensions about her second child (who was still in the womb). She ran from pillar to post, tried all her means to contact her husband, left numerous messages but all was in vain, finally, when she reached home (from hospital) she witnessed the aftermath of blasts which were flashing onto the television screens.
Reminiscing her past she said they had love marriage and were sharing good days together but as time passed, he became more interested in religious fundamentalism and then active jihad. Being a radical Muslim, she never dared to question her husband, her master. She mentioned his staying out of house for long hours. But she insisted that she had no idea regarding his involvement with the extremists. And hence it was difficult of her to believe his chipping in the bombings.
In an interview with Sky news, she said that in spite of being his wife, she fails to understand why her husband blew himself up aboard. she said,
How you can be so calculated and cold and not have any emotions, how can people do that?
She feels that she had lost her identity and would always be associated with the bombings.
