Muslim Preacher Wanted for Inciting Acid Attack on British Teenagers in Zanzibar


A Muslim preacher is under armed guard in Tanzania after police sought him out in possible connection to the acid attack on two British teenagers that left them badly burned, several media outlets reported.

The preacher, identified as Sheikh Issa Ponda, was apparently injured by a teargas canister as he tried to escape police officers, Mirror Online reported. He is currently under armed guard in a hospital, following suspicion that he might have incited the acid attack on 18-year-old British teenagers Katie Gee and Kirstie Trup in Zanzibar last week by two men on a motorcycle.

The girls, who were part of a volunteering teaching program working at a primary school, suffered burns to their face, chest, and hands. They were treated at a local hospital in Zanzibar before being flown back to their families in the U.K. Read more
