A man suspected in Britain of terrorism offences, Ibrahim Magag, escaped surveillance by ringing for a black London cab, U.K. Home Secretary Theresa May was told.
The opposition Labour Party’s home affairs spokeswoman, Yvette Cooper, citing a Twitter posting from a taxi firm, told lawmakers that Magag picked up the ride less than half a mile (800 meters) from Euston station in London on Dec. 26. She had called May to Parliament today to answer an emergency question about the suspect’s escape.
