DUMB CRIMINAL OF THE WEEK: BOMB HOAX TO STOP WIFE’S NIGHT OUT

by Hazed

A man who was angry that his wife was going out to the pub while he had to work phoned in false bomb alerts to the pub to ruin her evening.

Mo Ahmed and his wife had opened a gift shop in Minehead, Somerset in England last August but it wasn’t doing well, so he had taken a second job at a restaurant to help pay the rent and bills.

When he learned that his wife planned to go out to the pub, while he had to work, he phoned the Duke of Wellington pub with a fake bomb threat. Police evacuated 130 customers from the bar as well as 25 guests staying overnight in the pub’s hotel rooms at 1.00 in the morning.

What makes Ahmed particularly dumb is that he used his own mobile phone to make the calls, so the cops were easily able to figure out that it was him!

He has been given a suspended sentence of six months, and will have to pay £840 compensation and do 120 hours of unpaid community work. No news on whether his wife is sticking by him…
