London attack mastermind k**wn to MI5 but ** action taken

LONDON: Scotland Yard has named Khuram Shazad Butt and Rachid Redouane, both from Barking in East London, as two of the three men who launched the London Bridge attack and killed seven in**cent people and were shot dead by police.

Scotland Yard said that Butt, 27, was a Pakistan-born British citizen while Redouane, 30, had claimed to be Moroccan and Libyan and also used the name Rachid Elkhdar.

Police sources have confirmed that Butt has ** connection with any radical groups in Pakistan, was radicalized watching Youtube videos of extremists and was k**wn to the security agencies. MI5 and the police are **w being urged to explain why ** action was taken against Butt and his friends, who were all featured in a documentary for Channel 4, unfurling jihadi flags and vowing to bring Sharia to Britain. The Met said: "Khuram Shazad Butt was k**wn to the police and MI5. However, there was ** intelligence to suggest that this attack was being planned and the investigation had been prioritised accordingly.

“The other named man, Rachid Redouane, was **t k**wn. Work is ongoing to understand more about them, their connections and whether they were assisted or supported by anyone else. We can**t say more about them at this stage. "

Detectives would like to hear from anyone who has any information about these men that may assist them with the investigation. They are particularly keen to hear about places they may have frequented and their movements in the days and hours before the attack.

"The investigation into this horrific attack is fast-moving and complex as we piece together a fuller picture of what occurred. So far ******rs have arrested 12 people — seven women and five men — and searched six properties, four on Sunday and a further two properties today. One of the arrested men and one of the women were subsequently released."

The three attackers hired the white Renault van used to ram pedestrians on London Bridge, according to police. Butt was k**wn to his friends as "Abz", and neighbours described him as a doting father-of-two and an Arsenal fan. They said he was friendly and polite, saying that he was k**wn for attending barbecues, playing with local children and giving out sweets in the nearby park. A neighbour told Geo News that he didn’t mix much with the local community and was seen often with his kids and wife.

Butt had appeared in a 2016 Channel 4 documentary about British jihadis, in which he was seen among a group of extremist praying with a black Islamist flag in Regent's Park in central London.

A former friend said he had contacted the authorities after becoming concerned about Butt's extremist views. Butt had been radicalised watching extremist videos online, he said, adding: "We spoke about a particular attack that happened and like most radicals he had a justification for anything and everything, and that day I realised I needed to contact the authorities."

Commander Mak Chishty, of the Metropolitan police, delivered a statement on behalf of the capital’s Muslim community outside the Scotland Yard headquarters.

This terrorist attack is an attack on all communities, including Muslim communities. Every time a terrorist attack takes place, Muslim communities either face or fear a backlash against them. The Muslim community appeals to all sections within their own communities to root out the scourge of terrorism which hides amongst their own people and masquerades as Islam.

“The Muslim community is alarmed and concerned that this attack by three people would have required planning and yet was **t reported. It is the Islamic duty of every Muslim to be loyal to the country in which they live and we are **w asking questions - to understand how extremism and hatred has taken hold within some elements of our own communities.

“Terrorism and extremism is hurting Islam. Muslims must do more to stop such attacks from happening again and we want to k**w how we can play a greater role in the future.”

Butt was so extreme he called fellow Muslims without beards **n-believers, would **t speak to women directly and was banned from a mosque for berating worshippers for being 'un-Islamic'.

The third murderer has yet to be named by the Metropolitan Police, who said although Butt was on their watch list, there was ** evidence he was planning an attack and therefore his file was **t deemed a priority.

Assistant Commissioner Mark Rowley said: “There was ** intelligence to suggest that this attack was being planned and the investigation had been prioritised accordingly. Work is ongoing to understand more about them, their connections and whether they were assisted or supported by anyone else.”

Meanwhile, over 130 Imams & religious leaders from diverse backgrounds refuse to perform the funeral prayer for London attackers in an unprecedented move.

In an unprecedented move, they have **t only refused to perform the traditional Islamic prayer for the terrorist - a ritual that is **rmally performed for every Muslim regardless of their actions - but also have called on others to do the same. They said:

"Consequently, and in light of other such ethical principles which are quintessential to Islam, we will **t perform the traditional Islamic funeral prayer over the perpetrators and we also urge fellow imams and religious authorities to withdraw such a privilege.

This is because such indefensible actions are completely at odds with the lofty teachings of Islam," said religious leaders in a statement.
