Morten Storm (born January 2 1976 in Korsør), alias Murad Storm and Murad Storm Ad-Denemarki, is a Danish former agent of the Danish Security and Intelligence Service (PET) who operated in Islamic militant circles. His identity became public knowledge in 2012 when he came forward in the newspaper Jyllands-Posten.
Storm grew up with his mother and stepfather in Korsør, a working class coastal town. Early in life his alcoholic father left home, and his step-father beat him. He made friends with Arabs in his apartment complex. In school, Storm was unruly and was eventually sent to a Tvind school, where he befriended a number of criminals. He committed his first robbery at age 13, and went to jail several times for violent behavior. After jail, Storm was expelled from schools multiple times and went to special schools. In his youth, his criminal activities earned him upwards of DKK 10,000 a week. He spent the money on alcohol and drugs. At age 21, he was a trial member of the Bandidos in Korsør during the Great Nordic Biker War.
Storm was also a talented soccer player and boxed at a local boxing club.
Storm became interested in Islam after reading a biography of Muhammad, and later converted with a friend at 19. He nevertheless joined the Bandidos and continued his partying lifestyle until his arrest on June 28, 1997. While in custody, he met a Danish Muslim convert named Sulaiman. After his release, Storm moved with Sulaiman to Sulaiman's residence in England to avoid angry former members of the Bandidos. During his time there, Storm began praying five times daily and grew a beard.
