This is not a trivial matter. At stake are multiple criminal investigations against Irhabi007, not to mention efforts to track down remnants of an active terrorist cell in Europe.
The information - that Irhabi007 is in real life Younis Tsouli, age 22, currently a resident of Belmarsh prison - was published by the SITE Institute who said
"Among these individuals [arrested] was 22 year old West London resident Younis Tsouli, recently revealed to be the infamous "Irhabi 007" himself."
The identity of Irhabi007 was revealed to a number of individuals as a consequence of investigations spawned by his arrest in October of last year. Those individuals, however, remained silent regarding his identity. A search of LexisNexis reveals no prior public release of this information. Searches of Yahoo and Google news also fail to turn up a public source other than SITE.
We will have more to say tomorrow regarding Irhabi007, the circumstances of his arrest and his associates. In the meantime, see the following:
