Villagers at Chak 477 in the Punjab offered prayers for Shehzad Tanweer, who killed seven people and injured 171 when he blew himself up on a Circle line train near Aldgate.

One resident said Tanweer was described as a “shahid” or martyr at the gathering, the third held to remember death of the suicide bomber.

Police were sent in case of disturbance as Tanweer’s uncle Tahir Pervez, who lives locally, distributed salted rice, a custom to remember the dead.
