Mohammed Asha, one of those in trial in the Glasgow airport bombing plot, has said that his co-accused Bilal Abdulla joked about "martyrdom" and was "very, very sympathetic with what is going on in Iraq" (i.e. the insurgency against Coalition troops).
Dr Mohammed Asha made the comments in taped police interviews the day after the attempted bombing.
Asha went on to also say Abdulla "hasn't mentioned anything specific but he's always, always talked about Iraq and martyrdom", however he discussed these matters in a way that was "very, very playful".
The same video saw Asha deny he was privy to any knowledge of the Glashow attack or that of the attempted attack in London's West End, and both men deny conspiracy to murder.
