Two teens connected to Texas Synagogue terrorist apprehended in UK

Two teens in connection with the Texas Synagogue attacker were arrested in England on Sunday.

It was discovered that the 44-year-old terrorist, Malik Faisal Akram, was a British citizen. He was shot dead after talks failed in the 11-hour standoff in Colleyville, Texas.

The teens were arrested in Southern Manchester, their identities have not been revealed. Both the persons of interest are in custody for questioning in an investigation that involves the FBI.

Akram had arrived in the US about two weeks ago and reportedly spent his first night as a homeless man. He bought weapons and then went to the Synagogue.

He had pretended to be homeless once again to enter the Synagogue. Akram’s brother has claimed that he suffered from mental health issues and apologized to the victims.

All of the hostages in the Synagogue were freed uninjured in the incident that began around 11:00AM. President Biden called the incident an act of terror.

The terrorist’s motive remains unclear, but he was heard demanding the release of convicted Pakistani neuroscientist Aafia Siddiqui who had tried to murder American officers in Afghanistan, and had links to 9/11 planners and terrorist organization al-Qaeda.
