Hate-filled Muslim returns

A FANATICAL Muslim who ranted against Britain has moved back here from Pakistan — to live on benefits.
Hate-filled Zeeshan Siddiqui, 26, who once called London an "organ of the devil", is enjoying life in a suburb of the capital.
The Sun tracked down Siddiqui to a quiet, tree-lined road in Heston, West London, following his release from custody by Pakistani police who were probing suspected terror links.
In the past he has said he wants to be an Islamic martyr, called for all non-Muslims to be killed and declared his contempt for the UK. Yet he is happy to sponge off our taxpayers to the tune of £52.60 a week in Jobseekers Allowance.
Siddiqui slipped back into Britain in January after eight months in prison in Peshawar.
He was suspected of having links to the 7/7 London bombers and at school was friends with Britain’s first suicide bomber Asif Hanif, who died in Israel in 2003.
Pakistani cops caught him with phone numbers of al-Qaeda terrorists, an electrical circuit which could have been used to detonate a bomb and a venomous diary spelling out his desire for a jihad, or holy war.
Cops believed he was waiting to be dispatched as a suicide bomber but the case against him collapsed when several witnesses failed to come forward.
The Sun has learned that before heading off to Pakistan to study, Siddiqui once worked for Transport for London - which could have given him vital information on road and rail networks.
Last week he surfaced on BBC Radio 4 to whinge about his treatment at the hands of the Pakistani authorities and claim he was tortured.
When The Sun tried repeatedly to speak to Siddiqui, he came to the door but would not comment on his case.
A neighbour who was at school with him said: "He reappeared a few weeks ago. At school he was always talking about Islam and politics."
