Terrorist mastermind of 7/7 attacks could be back on London’s streets within days despite police fears

  • A convicted Al Qaeda captain, Haroon Aswat, may be released from a psychiatric hospital soon due to a legal loophole regarding risk checks, according to The Sun.
  • He was jailed in the US for 20 years in 2015 for plotting a terrorist training camp, serving only seven years due to his psychiatric detention.
  • A psychiatrist warned that Aswat remains a risk for Islamic violent extremism and could influence others to commit acts of terrorism, according to a court hearing.
  • Aswat has been linked to the 7/7 bombings in London but was never convicted of involvement, despite police reports of calls to suspected bombers from his phone.
