Police forensic officers continue to work at a house in Colwyn Road in Leeds. A father of two spoke today of his "utter devastation" on finding that his next-door neighbour was a London suicide bomber. The taxi driver, 37, who spoke on condition of anonymity, lived next door to Shehzad Tanweer and his family, after moving five years ago to Colwyn Road in Beeston, Leeds. The neighbour, who is from Yorkshire and not of Asian origin, said he never imagined the "polite, educated boy" who lived next door was one of the bombers.
