'Three musketeers' convicted of plotting terrorist attack

Three Midlands men convicted of planning to use pipe bomb and meat cleaver against police or military target.

Three men have been convicted of planning a terrorist attack in which they intended to use a pipe bomb and meat cleaver against a police or military target.

The men from the Midlands called themselves the “three musketeers” as they exchanged encrypted messages on Telegram as part of their conspiracy.

They accused police of planting evidence, but the jury found them guilty of the plot after a four-month trial at the Old Bailey.

A jury of three men and eight women convicted Naweed Ali, 29, and Khobaib Hussain, 25, both of Birmingham, and Mohibur Rahman, 32.

The jury are still deliberating on a verdict for the fourth defendant, Tahir Aziz, 38, of Stoke-on-Trent.

'Musketeers' sentenced to life in jail for UK terror plot
The gang planned to use knifes and pipe bombs to carry out an attack in the UK, but were foiled by counter-terror police...etc.

Pity the keys aren't thrown away. Oh, if they want to call themselves Musketeers, maybe a bottle dungeon or oubliette would be more fitting?
