Khurram Sher, 28, has an interesting CV. He graduated from McGill University medical school in 2005. Practised at the Thomas Elgin General Hospital in the Department of Anatomical Pathology in Ontario, Canada. In 2006, he was involved in the relief efforts after an earthquake in Kashmir.
Earlier this month he was one of three men arrested in Ontario, Canada:
Three Canadians arrested in an alleged terrorist conspiracy had bomb parts and plans and posed a “real and serious threat”, Canadian police have said.
The trio, arrested this week, were charged with supporting terrorism.
Hiva Alizadeh and Misbahuddin Ahmed were jailed following a court appearance on Thursday.
In 2008, Khurram took part in the auditions for Canadian Idol, where he performed the Avril Lavigne song, ‘Complicated’:
As Khurram told the judges at Canadian Idol, he is from Pakistan and enjoys acting, music and hockey.

Four Lions wasn’t far wrong, was it?
Four Lions, exactly! Does art imitate life or the other way round?
American Dreamz got there first folks – http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0465142/
It’s plot actually concerns a foreign Jihadist going on American Idol to assasinate a Bush like President played by Dennis Quaid. Except that the Prez is quite likable (owing to the fact that he accidentally read the Guardian on a day off and has stopped listening to his vice-President – and most of the satire is actually directed at wannabe celeb culture and a Simon Cowell figure played by Hugh Grant)
When he was taking requests from the panel, I wish one of the judges would suggest “Losing my religion” for Khurram to do the moonwalk to.
I want him to do the 3rd verse of Weird Al’s version of Complicated:
