LONDON — A man who set himself on fire after allegedly crashing an explosive-laden Jeep into Glasgow Airport died in a hospital on Thursday, Strathclyde Police said Thursday.
Kafeel Ahmed, 27, had been in the hospital for a month with critical burns from the alleged attack on June 30, which followed a day after two failed car bombings in London. The other man in the car, Iraqi doctor Bilal Abdullah, has been charged with conspiring to set off explosions.
Ahmed, an Indian national from Bangalore, suffered burns to 90 percent of his body and had been in a coma throughout his stay at the Glasgow Royal Infirmary.
Kafeel Ahmed's brother, Sabeel Ahmed, 26, also faces trial after being charged with withholding information that could prevent an act of terrorism. He was arrested in Liverpool on the day of the Glasgow attack. Jordanian doctor Mohammed Jamil Asha is the other man facing charges over the botched attacks.
Mohamed Haneef, the 27-year-old cousin of the Ahmed brothers, was arrested and charged in Australia over the attacks. But he was released after police were forced to admit they did not have enough evidence to hold him.
