LONDON - British police said on Monday they had charged two men held in a major swoop last week, one of whom was accused of undergoing terrorism training at a camp in southern England. Detectives said British police said in February they suspected there were terrorism training camps in the country but this is the first time they had provided any details.
| Not surprising. There's a lot of quiet, empty places in the countryside, and plenty of folks contributing to the Widows Ammunition Fund. |
Mutegombwa was one of 14 men arrested when officers carried out raids in south London last week. Another of the arrested men was also charged on Monday with procuring funds for terrorism while 10 others are still in custody. Both charged men will appear at LondonÂ’s Westminster Magistrates Court on Tuesday.
The raid came just three weeks after British police said they had thwarted a suspected plot to bring down U.S.-bound airliners over the Atlantic. However, police said the arrests were not linked to that suspected plot.
