BANGALORE, India - Officials confirmed Tuesday that an Indian
suspect in the failed car bombings in Britain had worked as an
aeronautical engineer at a company contracted by the biggest
names in aviation.

Kafeel Ahmed, 27, is in a Scottish hospital with burns suffered
after allegedly crashing a Jeep Cherokee into the Glasgow
airport a day after police found two unexploded car bombs in
central London.

Ahmed worked in Bangalore as an aeronautical engineer for
Infotech Enterprises, a large outsourcing firm, from December
2005 to August 2006, said the company spokesman K.S.
Susindar.

Infotech works with some of the biggest companies in aviation,
including Boeing and Airbus, among others — possibly giving
Ahmed access to sensitive design information from the
companies.

who treated him said Tuesday.

Kafeel Ahmed, 27, is in a Scottish hospital with burns
suffered after allegedly crashing a Jeep Cherokee into
the Glasgow airport a day after police found two
unexploded car bombs in central London.
