A British man has gone on trial accused of planning a terror attack on UK or US military personnel.
Prosecutors say Junead Khan, 25, from Luton used a bomb-making article from an al-Qaeda publication to plan an attack on British or American military personnel in the UK.
Prosecutor Max Hill told a London court that Khan, a delivery driver whose work took him past US air bases in eastern England was “preparing for an attack on British forces or American soldiers or airmen” when he was arrested in July.
Police have found a laptop in Khan’s home containing an article from an al-Qaida online magazine entitled “Make a bomb in the kitchen of your mom.” Khan denies preparing for an attack.
