Ahmed and Bilal Abdullah were identified as the men who planted car bombs in London on 29 June 2007 and attempted an attack at Glasgow Airport the next day. Ahmed was arrested by Strathclyde Police (Scotland) in the aftermath of the latter incident and was hospitalised at the Glasgow Royal Infirmary in critical condition. He had suffered burns to 90% of his body and was not expected to survive—he had already been revived twice by 4 July. "The Sun" reported Britain's National Health Service was paying over £5,000 a day to keep him alive, while security sources said this amount reaches £30,000 when security costs are included.
