Irish Heathrow bomb hoaxer jailed
25.07.10
A Scottish man with an address at Santry Lodge, Ballymun, Dublin has been sentenced to four years in jail for emailing two hoax bomb threats to Heathrow Airport. Adam Busby claimed, in the emails, to be from the Scottish National Liberation Army (SNLA). The 61-year-old was convicted 13 years ago for similar offenses when he made threatening phone calls to the Scottish media.
During the trial, the court also heard of other threats and acts of terrorism that he is suspected to have made. In the past, he has threatened the water supply in Manchester. He has also sent bottles of vodka to politicians and journalists which were filled with caustic soda.
Mr Busby pleaded not guilty to the offenses at Dublin Circuit Court. He suffers from multiple sclerosis, is wheelchair-bound and is expected to serve two of his four-year sentence.
