British spies approached the brother of Woolwich murder suspect Michael Adebolajo more than ten times to convince him to work for the security services, it emerged today.

Jeremiah Adebolajo said MI5 and MI6 ‘harassed’ him and tried to press him for details about his family before putting him on a ‘no-fly list’ when he refused.

The 26-year-old was first approached in 2011 when he moved to Saudi Arabia to teach English at the University of Ha’il, in NeJd.

He held 11 meetings with both MI5 and MI6, both in the Gulf and also in the UK, including on one occasion where he was intercepted as he got off a flight at Heathrow.
