A millionaire teenager who has gained a following on social media for posting pictures of luxury cars has found himself the victim of a series of arson attacks.
Aleem Iqbal, 19, who styles himself as 'Lord Aleem,' and has over 160,000 followers on Instagram, had four vehicles set on fire, resulting in damage costing €600,000.
The teenager, who works for his father's luxury car rental firm, leased a Lamborghini for a wedding, only to find it burnt out a few hours later outside a house in Luton.
Video footage shows a number of hooded men arriving in a 4x4, dousing the car in petrol, and setting it alight.
The next week, three cars belonging to his father's business suffered the same fate, when two Audi R8 Spyders and a Bentley Flying Spur were burnt in Birmingham.
Business Insider reports on Iqbal's comments on the crimes:
"I'm not sure if it’s an attack on my family because they would have come directly after me or my family if that was the case.
"However, I do believe it could be a vile act of jealously towards my business or it could just be mindless vandals on an arson spree."
CCTV footage also exists of the second attack, and police are continuing their investigations into the crime.
