The supergrass said that he had met the Malaysian jihadists – one of whom was a pilot – in Afghanistan and given them a shoe bomb to use to take control of an aircraft.

Am I the only person who doesn't know what a 'supergrass' is - or why a person would be called that?

“Supergrass” is British slang for a snitch - an informer.
