London, Dec. 6 (TNS): Two men are due in Westminster Magistrates’ Court later over an alleged plot to kill Theresa May, British media reported on Wednesday.
Naa’imur Zakariyah Rahman, 20, from north London and Mohammed Aqib Imran, 21, from Birmingham, have been charged with terrorism offences.
According to British media reports, the allegations involve a plan to bomb Downing Street security gates and then attack the PM with a knife.
The men were arrested on 28 November by counter terrorism officers.
It comes a day after a security review said it was “conceivable” the Manchester Arena bombing could have been prevented.
MI5 chief Andrew Parker briefed Mrs May and the cabinet yesterday about nine alleged Islamist terror plots that have been foiled since March this year.
