London, Nov 19 (ANI): Two British terror suspects were killed in an earlier US drone attack on the Pakistan-Afghanistan border, it has emerged.
According to the Daily Mail, Ibrahim Adam, 24, and Mohammed Azmir, 37, died in a CIA missile strike in Waziristan.
It is not known precisely when the men died, but according to a source, it is thought to have been at least three months ago.
Adam from Barkingside, had been on the run from UK authorities since absconding from a control order in May 2007.
His brother, Anthony Garcia, was jailed for life in April 2007 for his part in a fertiliser bomb plot to attack targets in London and across Britain.zmir, who was born in Sheffield and lived in Ilford, Essex, was made the subject of a Treasury order freezing his assets in February 2010 in response to concerns that he was involved in funding terrorism.
He is not currently on the Treasury's list of people and organisations subject to financial sanctions.
According to the report, Azmir's 32-year-old brother, Abdul Jabbar was killed in a CIA unmanned drone attack in Pakistan in September last year.
The Foreign and Commonwealth Office could not confirm Adam and Azmir's deaths but said it was investigating the reports. (ANI)
