Mohamed Farouk

criminal United Kingdom

Mohamed Farouk, a 29-year-old British man, was sentenced to life in prison for attempting to detonate a bomb at a maternity hospital in Leeds, inspired by extremist ideology. He constructed the explosive device using a pressure cooker and aimed to target the hospital to cause maximum harm, specifically to nurses. His actions were thwarted by a passerby who noticed something was amiss and intervened, ultimately saving lives. Farouk's radicalization was characterized as that of a 'lone wolf', as he had become self-radicalized and sought to emulate past terrorist attacks.
