What's up with Abu Faraj al-Libbi 's skin?

Medical question?

In the pictures being shown he (Abu Faraj al-Libbi ) looks like his facial skin is either peeling, burnt or stained? Either that or he has a cheaper "bleaching" Doctor than Michael Jackson.

The older pics of him seem to show even skin-tone, so it doesn't appear to be birth-marks. What would cause this type of distinctive markings?

When I saw the picture of him, I figured it was a severe sun-burn. But I have no proof of my claim.

Maybe became a little scared when they slapped the cuffs on him.

I'd like to hear a little more on how sick UBL is.

One can only hope...

Doesn't look so clean cut and cocky now, does he?

He supposedly has the skin condition M. Jackson claims to have. I believe it's called Vitiligo.

luecoderma, also known as vitiligo

Vitiligo is more commonly known as leucoderma, which simply means white (leuco) skin (derma), i.e. a disorder where the skin loses its normal coloration. It is also medically known as achromia, which means loss of color.

Chemical Burn

MSM reports...(so take with a grain of salt)...

Ol Boy was dressed in a Burqua when they caught him. Pak forces used tear gas on the house he was hiding in. The marks are from expsoure to the gas around the eye holes of the burqua...
