Vile child rapist is banned from the roads

By Michael MacLeod

AN evil child rapist twice slipped through cops’ fingers during a near decade-long reign of abuse when he was caught drink driving.

Vile Mutasim Al Mutasim, 35, was caught drunk behind the wheel of his car twice in the midst of horror attacks on primary school children.

He was stopped first in September 2006 at the capital’s Duddingston Road West and later again January 2007 at Hay Avenue, where cops found him well over three times the drink-drive limit.

But police said last night they had no way of knowing he and his brother, Eldirdeery, 24, were sexually abusing girls as young as five.

It wasn’t until April 2008 that detectives snared the Sudanese dish-washer for horrific child sex offences which were described by one judge as “beyond the understanding of a caring and civilised society”.

A MUM of two found dead in the bathtub of her Edinburgh home was murdered, detectives said tonight.

Randa Kamblawi, 34, was found at her Nicolson Street flat on Tuesday morning sparking a wave of police activity.

SEARCH: police still looking for missing husband

Sources said she was found lying on her side, completely submerged in water, and officers were greeted by a scene described as “complete chaos”.

As revealed by Deadline yesterday, Lothian and Borders Police are looking for her husband Yahya Babiker.

Sudan

The pair married in the town of Karima in northern Sudan in September 2002 and moved to the city shortly after.

The security guard, who is in his forties and originally from Sudan, has been missing since shortly before his wife’s lifeless body was discovered.

Locals said they understood he had dropped off the couple’s two young children, Mohammed aged five and Tagwa, three, with relatives in Edinburgh and has not been seen since.

Friends of the family in the Sudanese community in Edinburgh said they had also tried to reach Mr Babiker but were unable to get hold of him.
