It's okay.

Now run.

Daddy?

"Flight"
Part 1 of 2

- Are we OK to...?
- Yeah.

- Are you Murder Squad?
- Yeah, DI Ryman.

Dr Chamberlain.
This is Dr Alexander.

- And the victim?
- An imam.

This was his mosque.
Name's Amir Aziz.

One of his congregation
was attacked here about a month ago.

- Racially motivated?
- Possibly.

Did you get the person who did it?

No, but we're thinking
it could be connected.

OK.

So, he has got grazes,
cuts and bruising

to the face and head,
possibly from a fall.

From the top of the stairs?

No, I don't think
the injuries are bad enough for that.

No CCTV in here or outside.

OK.

- Check across the road, will you?
- Ma'am.

Shall we?

One...
two... three...

He's been stabbed.

Good morning!

Something you all should see.

Right, then,
we have got blood.

Really?
Where?

Traces here.

So, he was attacked
in here and, what,

- tried to get away and fell partway down the stairs?
- Yeah.

Or was pushed.

And blood on his mobile, too.

- He made a call?
- Yeah.

Just before he was found.
He hung up before it connected.

What number?

Me?

Ladies and gentlemen,
welcome to London.

Please remain seated, with your
seatbelt securely fastened,

until the captain turns off
the seatbelt sign.

He's been such a good baby!

He's been cramped
up for ages.

Hello!
Hello!

- After you.
- Are you sure?

- Yeah.
- Thank you very much.

"City West Hotel
Room 237"

Mr and Mrs Rachid,

this is Dr Alexander
and Dr Chamberlain.

I'm so, so sorry about your brother.

- Can we see him?
- Of course.

There is just something we need
to run past you first, if that's OK.

We are not required to obtain
next-of-kin's permission

- for a postmortem, but...
- Islam doesn't allow it.

- No, I understand...
- Except for where the death

may have resulted from
a criminal act.

Amir wouldn't want it.

I understand that
what we're asking isn't easy,

but this is a murder
investigation.

We need all the evidence
we can get.

The alternative could be
that we miss something vital

and your brother's killer
gets away with it.

I don't think any of us
wants that.

- OK.
- Thank you.

This way.

There is one more thing...

When were you last in Amir's office?

Yesterday, both of us.

We are going to need your DNA
and prints, too, if that's OK?

Claire?

Little man.

Come in.

We already have his prints
from the previous case.

We needed to screen
people locally

and he led by example.

Are you OK, being here?

So, he knew you well enough
to have your mobile number?

Yeah. Well, like I said,
he was incredibly helpful.

Why would he call you direct,
rather than 999?

Rigor's not yet begun to set in,
so time of death estimated

at no more than three hours ago.

Bruises and abrasions to the face
and on the costal margin,

possibly from the fall.

But it's likely to have been
the stab wounds that killed him.

Why would anyone
want to target him?

I mean, specifically, him.

Take your pick.

He was anti-fundamentalist
and wasn't afraid of saying so.

Then, there is the usual suspects
who just hate him,

because...
because that's what they do.

Sorry, my friend.

Knife tip.

OK, so,

this is from a security camera
at the end of the street.

The mosque is here,
just out of shot.

And this taxi was parked there
from around five past five,

- for 20 minutes or so.
- This morning?

Would have been around
the time Amir Aziz died.

We are checking
the licence plate now.

All right, there is no sign of
the knife in or around the mosque.

- Prints?
- In his office - plenty.

Parishioners, probably,

if that's what you call them.

And...

this chap - I ran him through
the database - John Sutherland.

Previous for affray,

on an English
Defence League march.

Cheers.

We have got a trace
on that numberplate.

That's him.
John Sutherland.

The same guy.

He's the taxi driver.

I wouldn't touch him.

Wouldn't want me hands
to smell of curry.

This was your taxi

at eight minutes
past five this morning,

parked outside
the Bridge St mosque.

What were you doing there?

Waiting to speak to Amir Aziz.

First prayer.

So you knew him?

How come my prints
are in his office, if I didn't?

How did you know him?

Everybody knows him, don't they?

What were you doing
in his office?

He invited me in, to talk.

Brave guy.

- Me?
- Him.

- When?
- When was I in there?

Yesterday, about nine.

- What did you talk about?
- Islam.

Like what, about Islam?

Like whether the Wahhabi interpretation
of the Koran has any validity

or whether it should be
dismissed out of hand.

But you didn't go into
the mosque this morning?

No.

You just hung
around outside?

- Yeah.
- Why?

Just to let him know I was there.

To intimidate him?

- I was reminding him.
- Of what?

That there are consequences
to what we do and what we say.

I just liked him to know
I was watching him.

So...
while you were...

sitting there...
this morning...

..what happened?

- What did you see?
- People coming and going.

One guy running.

What did this "guy" look like?

Like they look -
brown, with a beard.

Is that it?

That's it.

Found this in your wallet.

Your son, right?

Ollie.

Where was this taken - Helmand?

Can't have been far from where
he was killed, then.

Taliban, IED.

How did that make you feel?

Like killing every Muslim
you ever set eyes on?

Including Amir Aziz.

They undermine this
country's role,

your son's role in that war,
am I right?

He stood up and said we
shouldn't have been there.

What was it?

"Every death...

"was a complete waste.

"A failure."

Your boy died for nothing.

That's what he said.

Yeah?

A Muslim man.

Is that why you had to
terrorise him?

I have principles, Ms Ryman.

And I stick to 'em.

But I'm not a stupid man.

If I'd wanted to hurt him...

..you wouldn't get
to know about it.

Get your hands off of him!

All right, calm down,
just trying to help.

We're done.

Pleasure.

An attack on one of us
is an attack on us all.

And building trust
again takes time,

but people need to know

that we're at the heart
of this community.

We have to reach out
and make connections with people,

whoever they are.

Don't let hatred ruin our lives.

That was Amir about a month ago.

Though, what he said,
who wants to fall out with?

Excuse me.

He had no partner, no wife?

No.

- Do you?
- Me? No.

And you're straight, are you?

Why?

Just...

..if you wanted to make
a connection...

that would be OK with me.

The second independent
postmortem's been done,

so we can release the body to the
family, if you're happy with that?

- Yeah, great.
- Yeah, good.

What? Hey, all right!
Take it easy!

- I embarrassed you.
- No, no.

But?

What, a woman's never
come on to you before?

- Well...
- I'm sorry, patience isn't my virtue.

I think something, it comes straight
out of my mouth. No filter.

- It's scary.
- Totally.

Look...

you were good with Amir's sister.

No argument, but lots of empathy.

And I thought there was
a little something here.

Maybe I'm wrong.

But I didn't want to let it pass
in case I wasn't, so...

- Are you OK with that?
- Yeah, yeah.

I'm OK with that.

Ryman.

Drug squad have picked up a trafficker
in a hotel near the airport.

Yeah, and what's
that got to do with me?

They missed the mule
he was meeting with,

- but they recovered her mobile.
- And?

We were going through
a list of calls

Amir Aziz made
over the last few days,

trying to identify the numbers.

And one of them was to a Turkish
registered phone.

It was that mobile.

What are you saying, that the
drug mule got a call from Amir Aziz?

Bingo.

- Don't just not call.
- I left a message.

- I was up half the night worrying.
- I left a message!

Mama...

Drug squad got a tip-off
that led them to the traffickers,

but nothing on the mule.

Now, here she comes
out of the hotel, and...

- ..into the bin goes a phone.
- Oops.

- And then?
- See, that's your lot.

No more cameras, no more footage.

- And that's the phone?
- Yeah, there's nothing on it. It's been wiped down.

It's heroin, right?

Looking at just over a kilo.

- Street value of what, 60, 70 grand?
- I reckon.

Don't get your hopes up, it's clean,
too. No prints or DNA.

OK, so, she checks into
the airport hotel and, what,

- passes the pellets there?
- Yeah, which is unusual.

Normally they cork themselves up,

wait a couple of days,
make sure they're clear.

So what's her relationship
to Amir Aziz?

- Maybe he was involved.
- In trafficking heroin,

an imam?

No.

What's her name?

Isma?

The baby, Jan or Yan,
they're Dutch.

- No, these are false.
- False passports?

Yeah.
Well, they're good.

Good enough to get
through passport control,

but we got on to
Dutch immigration

and they're stolen from
the real Claire Isma and doctored.

So who is she, then?

I don't know,
pick a name, any name. Hey.

We've got the flight she came in on
this morning from Istanbul.

Plane is still on turnaround.

That's worth checking out.

Might give us a chance
to get some ID.

I've got a plane to catch.

How many years has it been, Mum?

- And you just turn up like nothing's happened?
- Jakob...

Not a word in all that time?

- That's enough.
- No, he's right.

You're right.

- Can I hold him?
- Sure.

Coffee's ready. Biscuits.

Hello, Musa.

I'm your baka.

You can call me Baka.

Am I OK to ask about his father?

I think I have a photo somewhere,
actually.

- What's he called?
- Zak.

He was from London, too.

Where is he now?

He died...

a few months ago.

And...and you were married?

You will have been married?

So...

..how did you get back?

Are you pleased to see your sister?

Got all that out of your system?

Well...

Can we get these guys
out of here, please?

They haven't cleaned in here,
have they?

I hope not.
I told them to hold off.

- What seat number have we got?
- 60D.

(60D...)

- Sorry, am I in your seat?
- Thank you! Yeah.

That's OK.

Thank you.

Sorry.
I've got some...

No, it's fine,
I've got some wipes, thank you.

- Can you hold that?
- Thank you.

Come on, baby...
Time to buckle up, baby.

Can you fasten your seatbelts now?
Thank you.

Yeah...

Do you want to?

- Can I?
- Yeah.

I'll pick up his dirty things.

OK.

OK,
we got a couple of prints.

- One's from a baby...
- The other's from the mother?

Maybe.

Who could still be Dutch,
remember?

I'll get on to Interpol
so we can run the prints

through their database, too.

Mr and Mrs Rachid are back...
with friends.

- Did the postmortem help?
- It did.

Thanks for agreeing to it,
it answered some questions.

Why would anyone want to
do that to him?

We got a match on prints
from the plane.

Sarah Begovic.

Begovic. What nationality is that?

Well, this will be the UK database,
right? Mh-hmm.

Here we go.

YOU ARE NOT AUTHORIZED
TO VIEW THIS FILE

- What?!
- What's up?

I don't know.

Why don't I have clearance?

Where's Musa?

He's fine, he's...
having a nap in the bedroom.

Do you want to lay the table?

Sure.

How are things with Jakob?

Good.

Working?

He showed me some of the things
you posted online.

That was a while ago.

You've changed your mind?

You want to talk about this? Really?

I want to know
what you're thinking.

Just tell me.

You want me to say that...

- I was young and naive?
- No.

What, then?

That I should have
stayed here with you

and made you proud?

No.

Just not lie to me and disappear
without even saying goodbye.

Why are you back, Sarah?

So Musa can know you.

And...
so you can know him.

I need a favour, Mum.

I need you to take Musa for a while.

I can't live like this,
can I, just wondering

when someone's going to tap me
on the shoulder?

You're going to the police?

So...

I'll take care of him after that.

And now?

Mum...

I can't get drawn into anything.

And neither can Jakob.

There have been consequences.

And you're a mother now,
you have responsibilities.

- So you need to do things properly.
- Mum...

You done the Parmesan?

Chief Inspector Waite.

Counterterrorism.

Sarah Begovic,
Bosnian extraction.

Came to this country in 1997 with
her mother and younger brother.

Now goes by the name of
Umusa Al-Britanni.

Left home two and a half years ago
for Iraq,

ended up in Raqqah in Syria.

Married to another
British jihadist,

Zaki Latif,
known as Zak.

- The child is his, presumably?
- Yeah.

And where is he?

Killed three months ago
in a firefight in Fallujah, Iraq.

- Would you be so kind?
- You bet.

By the time Begovic's mother
realised she was being radicalised,

it was too late, she was
already out of the country.

And since then, she's been
all over social media,

acting like a recruiting
sergeant for them.

Dozens of women have followed
her out there.

And him?

He was portrayed as this
incredible warrior,

had a massive online following
among Muslim kids here.

They were the golden couple,
him on the front line,

her in the Women's Brigade,
sort of moral police.

Hugely influential.

So what's the connection between
her and the murdered imam?

We don't know. Amir Aziz
wasn't on any watchlist.

But he was in touch with her, so...

It follows therefore he might have
known she was heading home.

- And indeed been instrumental.
- No, he wasn't...

He was anti-extremism big time.
He said so publicly.

If... he knew she was coming back,
he would have reported it.

He was a good guy.

A really good guy.

Regardless, we're bringing in
his family to see

if they know of any connection.

If she's such a big cheese,
what's she doing back here now?

Well, maybe she had
a change of heart.

Her husband's dead and
she wanted to come home.

- Unlikely.
- She gets in packing heroin?

Why not?
Maybe smuggling drugs

was how she paid her passage.

No committed Islamist would have
anything to do with drugs, no way.

Not if she is
who you say she is.

Well, like I say,
maybe she's not committed any more.

Maybe she managed to get away.

That's possible, but people have
tried to escape before

- and either been killed or captured.
- Not everybody.

The odd person's got out.

Yeah, but not people like her,
with that kind of profile.

She's massively committed.

Now, if she's here,
she's been allowed to come.

Why?

Why do I do this, let you
persuade me to drive you around?

Well, I wouldn't have asked, but...

I wanted to get you on your own.

What?

I didn't want her
making a fuss, so...

I'm telling you instead.

I've left some money
under the bed

in my old room for her.

And for Musa, too, if he needs it.

Why would he need it? He's with you.

Why would he need it?!

It doesn't matter,
just tell her.

What you've done
to this family...

- Jesus Christ!
- What I've done is right.

Mum can forgive you,
but I will never...

- Stop the car!
- I get it, you know?

When you're a kid,
all those guys online,

guns over their shoulders,

looking like they're on
first-name terms with Allah.

But now, you still believe
in that shit?!

Stop the car!

- Here you are, baby.
- You know what?

They put a bullet in Dad
because he wasn't like them,

he wasn't one of them.

Well, your lot are no different.

Where are you
on the Amir Aziz murder?

John Sutherland, the cab driver,
is still in custody.

And you'll keep me up to speed?

- Yeah, of course.
- Thank you.

Mr and Mrs Rachid,
this is Chief Inspector Waite.

I'm sorry for your loss.
Thanks for coming down so promptly.

OK...

We're investigating the possibility

that your brother may have
become associated

with someone we are
actively seeking

in connection with other offences.

So this is the guy
who killed him?

No, this person wasn't
in the country at the time.

- And what are these offences?
- I'll... We'll come to that.

Can I first of all ask you,
do you recognise this woman?

What about this man?

It was taken a while ago now, but...

Yeah, I've seen him.

A long time ago, though.

Where?

At the mosque, do you remember?

No.

I've seen his face.

Armed police!
Get down now! Get down!

- On the floor!
- Suspect on the floor.

Mama?

You, down, get down!
On the floor!

Keep still!

Keep still!

She was in your home,
but you didn't think to report her?

She's my sister.

Harbouring a terrorist
is a criminal offence.

So charge me.

You do what you want.

Waterboard me,
I don't give a shit.

I've told you everything I know.

Except what she's doing here.

Maybe she's here to start again,
to make a life for her kid.

I don't know why she's home.

- Where were you going in the car?
- You know where I went.

You've been monitoring my phone
since she left,

- you know my every move.
- You left your phone at home.

You're protecting her.
Why?

Why?

I say Islamic
and what do you see in your head?

A guy with a straggly beard and
a gun or a woman wearing a burqa

with a pair of glasses
over the top of it, am I right?

OK, well, maybe not you,

because you probably
read the Guardian or whatever.

But most people.

Hang on, how does this
relate to Amir Aziz?

Well, he was in contact
with a jihadist.

Therefore it follows he must be
involved in terrorism in some way!

That's Waite's thinking.

He's called Mohammed,
he must be about to detonate.

Anyway, enough.

- Let's talk about you.
- Really?

I think I'd rather
stick to religion.

- Good old C of E?
- Wrong.

Catholic, actually.

Guilty boy.
Lapsed?

Yeah. Yeah, though it still
hums along in the background.

Can't ever quite throw it off.

So...

..do you...

do want to go on somewhere, or...?

Do you?

Should I stand up?

I didn't even know
she was in the country.

And the money, you didn't know
that was there either?

No.

Where is she now?

- I don't know.
- You don't know?

I fed her, she bathed the child
and then she...

she went on her way to do...

..whatever she's going to do.

- Meaning what?
- Give herself up.

She wants to come home.

She told you that, did she?

And you believed her,

even though she lied to you
before she went to Syria?

You can't believe a word
that comes out of her mouth.

Look, I brought my daughter up
in a secular environment.

I didn't influence her.

So you don't agree
with her politics?

No.

And you condemn what she stands for?

Her man, Zak Latif...

18, he ends up in
a young offenders' institution.

He's radicalised in there.

- And he paid for that with his life.
- But your daughter,

she grew up in a nice,
comfortable home.

So nothing ever happened to her
to make her feel the way she did?

She had nothing to overcome
in her life?

1995...

..Srebrenica.

1,000 of us were slaughtered
by the Serbs.'

Amir!

'Sarah was there.

She remembers.

It's history.

Look it up.

You never wanted revenge for that?

Me?

What would taking revenge achieve?

And Sarah?
That never influenced her?

Here, she's just a middle-class
English girl with no excuse.

But I know different.

She saw her father die
just because he was Muslim.

Papa?

This country's been good to us.

But it also started a war in Iraq
that killed hundreds

and thousands of Muslims.

And then there's Guantanamo
and Abu Ghraib

and rendition and torture...

and drone strikes
on innocent people.

So how hard is it for them
to sell their propaganda?

How hard is it for our children

to think that there's
a better world out there?

So do I condone what she's done?

No.

But do I understand

why she's drawn to do it?

So, how long have
you lived here?

Five, six years?
Since my divorce.

- You were married, too?
- Yeah.

To an Irish guy - Catholic,
like you.

It was my fault it ended.
He was a good guy.

What?

What?

Another "good guy".

I don't get it.

That's what you said about the imam.

- Meaning?
- Nothing, nothing, just...

Faith can blind people sometimes,
can't it?

You mean me with Amir Aziz?

- Look, I'm sorry...
- No, come on, you said it.

What, you think my faith in him

is blinding me from the guy
he really was?

- Is that your thinking?
- It's a theory.

Theory!

Well, I know what I know
and I'm hardly ever wrong.

Even if you say so yourself!

If I like someone, then that's it.

..members of the Transport Union
had been due to walk out

for 24 hours on Thursday evening
in a dispute over pay.

Now, after two days of talks,

they say they'll
take proposals

for a 3% pay rise
to their members.

A murder investigation was
launched today after Amir Aziz,

a well-known imam and fierce critic
of Britain's war in Afghanistan,

was found dead in west London
in the early hours.

Mr Aziz's body was discovered
at the Bridge Street mosque

shortly after the morning prayer.

Police are currently holding a man
in custody on suspicion of murder.

They're appealing for anyone
who has seen...

..anything suspicious in the area
around 5am to get in touch.

A spokesman said that,
at this early stage,

detectives are keeping...

An attack on one of us
is an attack on us all.

And building trust
again takes time.

But people need to know that we're
at the heart of this community.

We have to reach out and
make connections with people,

whoever they are.

Don't let hatred ruin our lives.

We have to reach out and
make connections with people,

whoever they are.

Don't let hatred ruin our lives.

..hatred ruin our lives.

If you're come to tell me I can go,

we don't need a conversation,
do we?

Interview with John Sutherland.
Time is 5.36am.

Last time we spoke, you said you
liked to intimidate Amir Aziz.

No,

I said I sometimes like
to remind him of my presence.

By parking your cab outside his
mosque. You also like to follow him.

There's news footage of Amir
giving an interview online

and there you are in the background.
Bit of an obsession, am I right?

It's not against the law for me to go
to a public event,

- is it?
- No.

Look, I'm trying to help you here.

Really?

I don't believe you had anything
directly to do with his death

but I do think you could have
information. You were hanging around him.

- There must have been things you've seen, people...
- I already told you.

But you just assumed
I was bullshitting, didn't you?

I could've said
I saw the man do the deed

and you wouldn't have believed me.
Your mind was already made up.

This is the guy you said
you saw outside the mosque, yeah?

Describe him.

Like I said - Asian, bearded.

- Age?
- 20s.

And why did you notice him?
Why him?

- Weren't there other people around?
- He was running.

He tried to hail me but I can't
pick up without a booking.

Did you see what happened to him?
Where did he go?

There's a minicab place
around the corner.

My guess is he went there.

- We should call this in.
- Don't even know who he is yet.

This is definitely the block, is it?

- Where the minicab dropped him off?
- Yeah.

But they're all boarded up.

Except for that one.

Begovic.

This is a message to my brothers
and sisters in the UK.

We are here in the land
of the Caliphate

and we are proud to
protect your honour.

But brothers and sisters,

we implore you to strike upon
the necks of the infidel.

Tear apart those
who want to install

the laws of Satan in our lands.

Only then will we enter Paradise

and be like a bird
flying free in Jannah.

This is DS McRae.

Request ARV backup
immediately to Maythorpe Road.

So strike at them
where they work and play.

Strike at their hearts.

Let them know
that vengeance is upon them.

Is she alive?

How did they find us, huh?

Your mother?

So what the hell
was Begovic doing here?

Ryman wasn't following her, was she?

To hit Ryman
from the first floor,

the gun would've had
to be pointing downwards

by about 10 degrees,
meaning...

- It would have hit the window here.
- Exactly. Except it didn't.

It hit it here.

Why go to all the trouble
smuggling him in

just to try and off-load him?

Because this is a trip she isn't
intending to come back from.
