Police said the teen who is accused of fatally stabbing three girls at a dancing lesson in the United Kingdom produced ricin and had an al Qaeda training manual.
Teen Accused of Ricin and Terror Crimes : In addition to being charged with manufacturing the lethal poison ricin, the teenager who is suspected of starting a stabbing spree that killed three girls at a dancing class in England with a Taylor Swift theme is also facing a terror charge for having a jihadi instruction handbook.
The lethal poison ricin was found in the home of 18-year-old Axel Rudakubana, who is accused of killing three girls and stabbing ten others in July, according to Merseyside Police. He also had a computer file containing the Al-Qaeda training manual “Military Studies in the Jihad Against the Tyrants: The Al-Qaeda Training Manual,” according to the police.
Following the circulation of false information on social media that misreported his name and identified him as an asylum seeker, far-right radicals used the stabbings to inflame their resentment of Muslims and immigration. A week of riots broke out throughout England and Northern Ireland as a result of violence that began in Southport.
Chief Constable Serena Kennedy asked the public not to speculate about the case in a statement released on Tuesday. The additional charges against Rudakubana include “possessing information, namely a pdf file… and allegedly manufacturing a biological toxin, ricin, which is against a law that forbids biological weapons in the United Kingdom.”
The artisan cheese vendor lost 48,000 pounds of award-winning cheddar to thieves.
In London, thieves who have a taste for good cheese have pulled off a huge imitation of cheddar.
Before Neal’s Yard Dairy discovered it had been duped and reported the theft on Monday, the company said a scammer acting as a wholesale distributor for a large French shop had stolen 48,488 pounds of award-winning cheddar valued at $390,000.International authorities and Scotland Yard detectives are looking for the criminals.
Amnesty International claimed that Sharmahd’s trial had been “grossly unfair” due to his denial of “the right to defend himself” and access to an independent attorney. Even though Sharmahd denied involvement in the assaults on multiple occasions, Amnesty International pointed out that he operated a website for the Kingdom Assembly of Iran and its militant wing in Tondar that contained allegations of “responsibility for explosions inside Iran.”In 2020, Sharmahd was taken hostage in Dubai.
In 2020, Sharmahd was in Dubai while attempting to get a commercial contract for his software company in India. Even though the coronavirus outbreak was still affecting international travel at the time, he planned to catch a connecting flight. Farajollah Cha’ab, an Iranian-Swedish dual national, was put to death by Iran in 2023 after being charged with conspiracy in 2018.
Three cheese producers—Westcombe, Pitchfork, and Hafod Welsh organic cheddar—have lost about 1,000 wheels of cloth-wrapped cheese.
Iranian-German Prisoner Jamshid Sharmahd, a US resident, was executed in Iran after being found guilty of terrorism.
United Arab Emirates, or DUBAI (AP) — After being found guilty on contested terror allegations, Iranian-German prisoner Jamshid Sharmahd, who was abducted by Iranian security services in Dubai in 2020, was executed in Iran, the judiciary said Monday. His execution occurred Monday morning, according to the judiciary’s Mizan news agency, which did not provide any specifics. Convicted criminals are usually hanged before dawn in Iran, one of the world’s most prolific executioners.
According to Iran, Sharmahd, who resided in Glendora, California, planned an attack on a mosque in 2008 that left 14 people dead, including five women and a child, and over 200 injured. He also allegedly planned further attacks using the obscure Kingdom Assembly of Iran.
In a 2017 television show, Iran also charged Sharmahd with “disclosing classified information” about the missile bases of the Iranian paramilitary Revolutionary Guard. In a post on the social media site X, Sharmahd’s daughter Gazelle Sharmahd attacked the United States and Germany for failing him.
She claimed to have no evidence that her father had been put to death and demanded that, if he had, his body be returned right away so that his family may bury him by Zoroastrian tradition. In 2023, two Iranian diplomats were expelled from Germany due to Sharmahd’s death sentence. Iran’s treatment of Sharmahd has been called “reprehensible” by the U.S. State Department, which has also called his trial a “sham.”
