Defendant in London’s Parsons Green Attack to Go on Trial on March 5
13, 2017
LONDON — The trial of Ahmed Hassan Mohammed Ali, an 18-year-old Iraqi orphan charged with attempted murder in connection with a terrorist
attack at a London Underground station last month, will begin on March 5, according to British news reports on Friday.
Mr. Ali, who appeared via video link for a hearing at the Old Bailey, London’s criminal court, has been charged with "maliciously"
causing an explosion "by means of triacetone triperoxide (TATP) or other explosive substances," according to court documents.
The explosion on the city’s heavily used commuter rail network revived memories of bombings
in 2005, which left 52 people dead in the deadliest attack on Britain since World War II.
Mr. Ali, who had been in foster care at the home of a retired couple in Surrey, a county in the Southeast
England, was arrested a day after the attack in the departures area of the port in Dover.
