LONDON — The wife of the man who killed four people outside Britain’s Parliament last week condemned the attack Tuesday, saying she is “saddened and shocked.”
“I express my condolences to the families of the victims that have died, and wish a speedy recovery to all the injured,” Rohey Hydara said in statement released through London police.
Khalid Masood’s widow added: “I would like to request privacy for our family, especially the children, at this difficult time.”
Police believe Masood — a 52-year-old Briton with convictions for violent crimes who had spent two years in Saudi Arabia — acted alone in last Wednesday’s knife and car attack. But they are trying to determine whether others helped inspire or direct his actions.
