Drowned man is failed British suicide bomber
The body washed up on the Tel Aviv shore last week is failed Derby suicide bomber Omar Sharif, the Israeli forensic institute said today.
A post mortem revealed he drowned, reports said.
Dr Yehuda Hiss, head of the Forensics Institute, said two British detectives provided DNA samples.
Sharif, a father-of-two, fled the scene of a suicide attack in the Israeli coastal city on April 30 after his explosive pack failed to detonate.
His colleague, from Hounslow, west London, blew himself up outside a bar killing three others.
Sharif had became the most wanted man in Israel after police found his passport at the scene of the bombing.
