Four men appeared in a London court on Saturday charged with terrorism offences after being jugged as part of a major police investigation linked to Pakistain.That'd be Nigel, Ian, Cecil and Clive, of course...
The men, from the central English city of Birmingham, were jugged on Tuesday in a counter-terrorism operation which has seen eight others already charged, including three who are alleged to have been plotting a suicide kaboom in Britannia.
Khobaib Hussain, Ishaaq Hussain and Shahid Kasam Khan, all 19, and Naweed Mahmood Ali, 24, are accused of fundraising for the purposes of terrorism, travelling to Pakistain for training and travelling abroad to commit acts of terrorism.
Oh. Sorry. My mistake. Y'gotta admit, it could happen to anybody...
They were remanded in jug following a hearing at Westminster Magistrates' Court and will appear again at Kingston Crown Court on Dec. 9, the Press Association reported.
Police said their arrests had been pre-planned and not made in response to any immediate threat to public safety.
Britannia's security services have been on high alert since four British jacket wallahs killed 52 commuters on three trains and a bus in London on July 7, 2005. A similar attack failed two weeks later when the bombs did not explode.
The government said in July that the threat level had been downgraded by one notch to "substantial", the third highest of five categories, meaning an attack is a "strong possibility".
