Story out of London, England:
A London teen is being accused of planning a bomb attack at a Elton John gig.
Haroon Ali Syed, 19, was allegedly planning to strike a concert at the gay singer-songwriter’s performance at London’s Hyde Park on the anniversary of 9/11.
The projected death count would have been on the scale of the worst terror attacks in the UK, on the scale of the 7/7 London bombings.
Prosecutor Thomas Halpin told Westminster magistrates’ court Syed discussed his plans online before meeting a man with £150 to pay a bomb maker.
A prosecutor said: ‘What started out as professed intent to become a suicide bomber crystallised into a plan to kill as many “Kuffar’”(unbelievers) as possible with a nail bomb.’
Last month, police claim Syed made applications for loans worth £8,000 to finance the attack but all were declined.
He is also alleged to have watched ISIS beheading videos for a month.
Syed, of Hounslow, west London, is charged with preparing acts of terrorism between 12 April and 9 September. Cont.
