Fugitive Samantha Lewthwaite, the wife of a 7/7 bomber - known as the 'White Widow' - remains at the top of worldwide federal enforcement agency Interpol's red list

Fugitive Samantha Lewthwaite, who is originally from Northern Ireland, tops the worldwide federal enforcement agency's red list accused of causing the deaths of more than 400 people. On July 7, 2005, London was hit by a series of devastating terror attacks which left 56 people dead and a further 784 wounded, with four bombs detonated across the city's public transport network. It was one of the worst terrorist incidents in British history, reports YorkshireLive.

In 2012, Kenyan police issued an arrest warrant for a woman using the fake name Natalie Faye Webb and travelling on a fraudulent South African passport. After consulting with the police in the UK, it was determined that this was Lewthwaite herself. The now 39-year-old mum-of-four fled the UK and was wanted in connection with an Al-Shabaab terror cell plan for attacks across Kenya. Al-Shabaab is a terrorist group from the UK, operating across Somalia and Kenya.
