Mehdi Ghezali, former prisoner at Guantanamo Bay.

The Burgos bomber has been identified by Bulgarian media as Mehdi Ghezali, a Swede, with a Finnish mother and an Algerian father.

In 1999, Ghezali was in prison in Portugal as the result of a bank robbery.

He then seems to have been recruited by the CIA for its al Qaeda mercenary force.

He studied in London.

According to media reports Ghezali travelled to Afghanistan and stayed at “Algerian House“, supposedly a known hideout for al-Qaeda in Jalalabad.[6]

According to the Associated Press Ghezali was “reportedly part of a group of 156 suspected Al-Qaeda fighters.”

Ghezali was captured by an Afghan warlord who handed him over to the Americans, who parked him in Guantanamo Bay from 2002 until 2004.

Ghezali was transported home by the Swedish Air Force

In 2009, Ghezali was reportedly arrested in Pakistan, but quickly released.

Bulgarian news outlet Novinite Daily reported that the Bulgarian Prime Minister Boiko Borisov said that officials are still trying to determine whether the Ghezali’s U.S. passport was genuine.

Ghezali’s driving license had a Louisiana address, which is that of acasino called the Belle of Baton Rouge.

A witness told news.bg (Terrorists struck Burgas Airport) that the explosion occurred during the loading of baggage onto the bus.

It is possible the explosive device was in the luggage.

According to experts, is likely the bomb exploded accidentally while loading the luggage…

When the bomb exploded part of the group had not yet entered the vehicle.

One of the witnesses – an Israeli – said … the bomb was placed in the trunk of the bus.

Witnesses told Israeli media that the Bulgarian authorities were slow in their response to the incident, adding that the rescuers “did not seem very concerned.”
