I wasn't wrong, I was living in Leicester at the time, many people were taken in such a manner, none of which proved to have links to any terrorist organisations.
Once I'd got off my soap box my friend said quietly 'In my town in Pakistan, this happens virtually daily, such a common occurrence it hardly makes the news papers any more, other than the obituaries'
Many Pakistani worked at this company and at the end of the conversation he leaned in and whispered ' be careful Mel. there are terrorists everywhere'
