Shot Man Recalls Terror Raid Ordeal
A young Muslim shot by police during a dawn terror raid on a suspected bomb factory in east London broke down as he described the moment anti-terrorist officers stormed his house.
Mohammed Abdul Kahar, 23, choked back tears as he recalled the 4am raid. Mr Kahar told a packed press conference how he was woken by the screams of his younger brother.
"From my room I could hear this screaming so I got out of bed," he said. He said he was clad only in boxer shorts and a t-shirt. "I assumed a robbery was happening," he said.
He told how he edged down the stairs before suddenly seeing a spark and hearing a big bang.
"I fell on the wall," he said. "I was on the floor, I looked at my chest and I saw bleeding coming down my chest and I saw the hole in my chest.
"At that moment I knew I was shot."
Speaking publicly about the controversial raid for the first time, he said as he lay on the stairs bleeding and fearing for his family he was kicked in the face by a police officer and told to "shut up."
Mr Kahar told how he put his hand over his chest and saw two officers walking towards him. He then described feeling the shotgun against his chest.
He said: "I was begging 'please, please, I cannot move'."
He claimed that as he pleaded with them, the officers told him to 'shut the f*** up, stay here, stay here'. At that moment I thought they were going to shoot me again or shoot my brother," he said.
