Yemen playboy, Farooq Abdulhak - son of one of Yemen's richest businessmen, insists he's innocent in the murder of Norwegian beauty, Martine Magnussen.

Farooq, safely ensconced in Yemen and out of the reach of the British authorities says he skipped out in his billionaire father's private jet the day before the body of 21-year-old Martine Magnussen was found beneath some rubble in the same block of flats where Farooq had a rental.

Farooq, a business student known as "DP" or Dom Perignon to his friends, confirmed that he did leave the upscale London club Maddox Thursday night at 3 a.m. with Martine and took her to his flat but that she later left and, according to a friend of Farooq's, a mysterious 3rd person is involved.

"They left the nightclub and went back to his home.

"But she left after that. He found out she was missing the next day.

"He panicked and called his father to get him out. Farooq says a third person was involved. His father has hired investigators to find out more."

Farooq's attorney, Mohammed Al-Bakwli, told the Mail that he and his client were frustrated that the British authorities hadn't contacted his client.

"I wish they would contact us. It would be in the best interests of my client. Farooq is not hiding and he is not a fugitive."

Authorities in Yemen are playing the "extradition" game in not allowing British detectives to talk to a "person of interest", Farooq Abdulhak, in the murder of Norwegian socialite, 23-year-old Martine Vik Magnussen.






Sources say the Yemeni's stance stems from the case of radical cleric-convicted terrorist Abu Hamza. Yemen had sought to extradite Hamza beginning in 1999 on charges he planned the 1998 kidnapping of 16 westerners in which four died when an attempt was made to free the hostages.

British authorities refused to turn Hamza over claiming he could receive the death penalty if prosecuted under Yemen law.
