Click here to view the footage on Sky News.
Omar fled the capital the day after he made a failed attempt to detonate a rucksack bomb on a Tube train near London's Warren Street station, Woolwich Crown Court was told.
The head-to-toe outfit gave others at Digbeth coach station no clue that the man inside was wanted by anti-terror police.
The court has already heard how Omar was captured on CCTV wearing the burka at Golders Green coach station in north London earlier in the day.
He was eventually arrested at a house in Birmingham on Wednesday, July 27.
...I am beginning to view anything moving wearing a burka with suspicion....The Muslims are generating a suspicious world by their actions....suspicions breed violence....

MUSLIMS: 'BAN' UN-ISLAMIC SCHOOLS
21/02/07
By Gabriel Milland
DEMANDS for a ban on “un-Islamic” activities in schools will be set out by the Muslim Council of Britain today.
Targets include playground games, swimming lessons, school plays, parents’ evenings and even vaccinations.
And the calls for all children to be taught in Taliban-style conditions will be launched with the help of a senior Government education adviser.
Professor Tim Brighouse, chief adviser to London schools, was due to attend the event at the capital’s biggest mosque.
His presence there was seen as “deeply worrying”, and a sign that the report was backed by the Government.

Its such a classic case of what the mahometans do so readily, thinking they've won the battle when it hasnt even begun. Was it the timorous dhimmitude of the metropolitan guardianistas which made you think the war was over? You are sorely mistaken...
Its exactly this kind of thing which is stoking up resentment and distrust amongst the general population, with each little demand for special treatment, separate this, separate that, another few hundreds or thousands of ordinary britons wakes up to the threat growing in their midst.
So, I say, rave on, Mr Bari, with or without your syrup, we have your number, and each word furthers not your cause, but ours.
Shouldn't a very tall "woman" in a burka ring some kind of warning alarm?
Is he being held in a womans' prison?
Any society that would make women wear trash bags thinks the same of its women.
How does a Muslim "woman" direct urination in the proper direction....
Burkas off!
Burka-wearing person could be concealing a bomb.
Could be male or female.
Does not fit in with free (un-Moslem) societies.
Why don't the airlines, police, and security agencies make any burka-clad or otherwise concealed person provide a fingerprint before giving them access? That's the minimum that should be required.
I can't remember who suggested this, but it was on this site a few months ago.
If you see a Mohametan wearing a mask, point and shout 'Hey, that one's a man!'.
There's a fair chance you will be right - and if you're not, how will they prove it?
i pity the women in those bin bags, their men are dustmen.
Aardvark
and then you'll see 5 cop cars screeching to a halt, a nice charge of racial and religious hatred. i remember a story of a guy getting arrested in the UK for alledgedly shouting at a muslim woman, yet she never pressed charges nor heard anything, but a white brit passerby thought she heard a racist statement so the guy that said nothign went to jail. the UK is a toilet.
does my bomb look big in this?
