Samantha Lewthwaite terror cell 'was preparing attack'

From The Telegraph

A terror cell including alleged British jihadists Samantha Lewthwaite and Jermaine Grant was "in the last stages" of preparing an attack in Kenya when Grant was arrested before Christmas last year.

Anti-terror officers, boosted by reinforcements drafted in around the country, moved on Grant and his Kenyan housemate after five days of covert surveillance in the coastal city of Mombasa.

A search of the men's two-bedroom flat later unearthed chemicals identical to those used by Lewthwaite's husband, Jermaine Linsday, to kill 26 people on the Piccadilly Line under Kings Cross on July 7, 2005.

Lewthwaite, who converted to Islam as a teenager, is believed to have been working with Grant and others to carry out a terror attack on a hotel in Mombasa or shopping mall in Nairobi, the Kenyan capital. Grant, 29, from Newham, London, his housemate, Fouad Abubakar Manswab, and his Kenyan wife, Warda Breik Islam, 19, face two counts of possessing explosives and plotting to make a bomb.

All three deny the charges. Lewthwaite, 28, charged separately but facing the same allegations, slipped Kenyan police clutches in December and has been on the run with her four children since. Although Samantha Lewthwaite's name was not mentioned in court yesterday, prosecution sources said it was "quite clear" that Sergeant Muli was referring to the mother-of-four from Aylesbury, Bucks.

Six Scotland Yard detectives are still to testify in the case, which is expected to last well into next year.

Have Mr Paul Weston and the British Freedom Party got some lawyers on side, exploring the possibilities for a revamp of the laws pertaining to Citizenship, and to the punishments for Treason and Sedition, in this age of Global Jihad?

This Lewthwaite creature is a right piece of work.

The simplest way to be rid of her is for her citizenship to be annulled; or for a sentence of 'Exile For The Term of Your Natural Life' to be brought down upon her.

She wants Islam? fine, give her a gutful. Exile her to dar al Islam and force her to stay there, for the rest of her life.

How old are the four children? If they're under ten, and especially if they're under seven, then maybe if her parents (the non-Muslim grandparents) or siblings (if non-Muslim) were willing and able to take them on, the kids could be removed from her and placed in the care of their non-Muslim grandparents.
