The bomber who blew up a taxi outside Liverpool Women's Hospital had his asylum claim dismissed years before the attack, newly obtained court documents confirm.
Emad Al Swealmeen died after his homemade bomb detonated in a taxi outside the hospital, shortly before 11am on November 14.
He had bought 2,000 ball bearings and rented a 'bomb-making factory' in Rutland Avenue, near Sefton Park in Liverpool.
