Osama Bin Laden's foremost lieutenant, Abo Abasabat, has been captured wearing the skin of British "Wish You Were Here...?" presenter Judith Chalmers.

Intelligence sources, working on an anonymous tip-off, raided Chalmers' North London home this morning and apprehended Abasabat.  Shocked neighbour Chris Tarrant witnessed events:

"I spoke to Judith this morning over the garden fence.  She was unusually quiet and several inches taller than usual.  I thought nothing of it really...then all hell broke loose!"

Authorities believe that the groundbreaking Whole Skin Transplant (WST) operation was carried out last year in Riyadh and bank-rolled by the super wealthy Saudi royal family.

Abasabat chose the seventy year old TV presenter's skin as the perfect disguise in which to travel the globe and manage the web of evil which is Al Quaeda.  It is even believed that ITV have been inadvertantly funding his travel and subsidising his extravagant tastes.  Recently, he travelled from London to Ankara first class on the Orient Express.

Chalmer's Son, Sir Bob Geldof, was unavailable for comment.  The whereabouts of the rest of her is not known and specialists refused to speculate on the prospects of her survival:

"Suffice to say that one is more susceptible to infection when not wearing a skin"...offered Dr. RosySpankin of University College Hospital.  "The skin is a very important organ, it holds things in".

Under (very) cross examination, Abasabat revealed that his gaffer Bin Laden is travelling in the skin of Alan Whicker.  Whicker's current whereabouts are unknown.
