THE family of Syria’s chemical weapons chief are leading lives of luxury in London.

Two sons and a brother of Dr Amr Armanazi, 72, have British citizenship despite the scientist being blacklisted by the UK and US for alleged war crimes.

Deadly sarin nerve gas made by Armanazi’s research centre was used in last week’s horrific attack on the town of Khan Sheikhoun which killed more than 80 people, including 33 children.

Armanazi’s older brother Ghayth, 74, a former ambassador of the Arab League in London, and youngest son Bisher, 33, were given a British passport after the US imposed financial sanctions on him in 2012.
