   London attack: Terrorist was in debt from playing lottery scratchcards   
      
      
   Westminster terrorist Khalid Masood racked up debts feeding an   
   addiction to Lotto scratchcards.   
      
   The jihadist, 52, was struggling to pay off two payday loans when he was shot   
   dead outside Parliament.   
      
   He was also behind with his taxes and had struck a deal to cough up £100   
   ($125) a month.   
      
   But he was so hooked on scratchcards he continued to blow a fortune on them,   
   an ex-flatmate in Birmingham revealed.   
      
   Masood, whose car and gun rampage last month killed five, also continually   
   nipped to the supermarket for booze.   
      
   Raviyar Sadiqi, who runs the store, said: “He bought scratchcards — a lot   
   of them — and smelt of alcohol.”   
      
   The killer’s former flatmate confirmed: “He had a problem with gambling   
   and booze.   
      
   “It didn’t fit in with his faith because both habits are banned under   
   Islam.   
      
   “He’d always be coming back with scratchcards. He was not a good Muslim.”
