(London) A fifth terror suspect will join four others awaiting trial for the failed July 21 attempt to murder passengers on London's transit system.
From CNN.com:
London's Metropolitan Police identified the man as Adel Yahya, 23. He was arrested Tuesday at Gatwick Airport as he got off a flight from Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.Yahya is accused of conspiring with Muktar Said Ibrahim, 27, Yassin Omar, 24, Hussein Osman, 27, and Manfo Kwaku Asiedu, 32, for trying to bomb three subway trains and a bus. Fortunately, they were unsuccessful.
He was charged with conspiring with four other men -- all of whom are awaiting trial over the plot to attack three subway trains and a double-decker bus -- "to cause by an explosive substance, explosions of a nature likely to endanger life or cause serious injury to property."
Notably, if convicted and sentenced to modest prison terms, all the terror suspects are young enough that likely they would represent a future threat. I hope the British justice system is of the same opinion.
