A 'quiet' and 'polite' pizza chef who was secretly plotting a deadly terrorist attack outside a hospital in Liverpool has left many unanswered questions surrounding what led him to the failed bombing. For months, Emad Al Swealmeen devised a horrific plan to compose a lethal device which he finally carried out on November 17, 2021 after he planted a bomb in a taxi, yards from the entrance of Liverpool Women's Hospital in Crown Street, Toxteth.
Thankfully, his attack did not cause much damage and no one died in the blast apart from the bomber himself, Al Swealmeen, the Liverpool Echo reports. The only other person that was left wounded was the taxi driver, David Perry who miraculously survived without any life changing injuries.
The seemingly ordinary 32-year-old was renting a property in Rutland Avenue, Sefton Park which he was using as his "bomb factory" while he stayed at a property in Sutcliffe Street, Kensington in accommodation built for asylum seekers. A year on the from terrifying incident Counter Terrorism Policing are still not sure what led to Al Swealmeen's bizarre actions.
