Jailed al-Qaeda boss fuming after prison chiefs banned him from baking cakes for cons
A JAILED Al Qaeda terror boss is fuming after prison chiefs banned him from baking cakes for cons.
Rangzieb Ahmed was once Osama Bin Laden’s right-hand man in the UK and was caged for life in 2008 after being linked to the 7/7 bombers who killed 52 in London in 2005.
But the 47-year-old old terror master now has been refused regular requests to work in the kitchen at at HMP Buckley Hall in Rochdale for the past two years.
A source close to the lifer told The Sun: “He applied for a job in the kitchen back in 2021 but has so far has not been given anything.
“He’s cheesed off because others have come to the prison after him and been given jobs.
“He has no idea why they are denying him – he has always worked in prison normally in the kitchen baking cakes and pastries or making pizzas. He was really good at it.”
Last summer the moaning al-Qaeda fanatic was denied his latest bid for parole but hopes to make a fresh bid for freedom next year.
In 2021 a previous parole attempt was dismissed after he falsely accused prison guards of being racist after they ordered him to obey Covid social distancing rules.
In 2020 a damages claim he brought against MI5 and MI6 for colluding in his torture by Pakistani intelligence was thrown out.
He was also handed £800,000 in taxpayers’ cash for a failed appeal against conviction.
In 2019 he moaned when his MP3 player was confiscated – despite following an twisted Islamist Sharia doctrine which bans all entertainment including music.
Prison bosses have also blocked his bid for a £45-a-week job calling the public in a jail sales call centre at his previous prison, HMP Lowdham Grange, Notts.
But in 2017 he landed a job baking up to 200 cakes a day for fellow lags at HMP Frankland in Durham – where his cooking was well received by lags.
The Ministry of Justice were contacted for comment.
