Man admits plot to carry out Isil-inspired drive-by shootings in London

From The Telegraph

The first defendant, Tarik Hassane, 22, dramatically changed his plea part way through his trial at the Old Bailey. He admitted conspiracy to murder and preparation of terrorist acts just as the defence was about to start. Hassane, a medical student was the ringleader of the cell. As a medical student he is hardly in the poor, ignorant and underprivileged department. 

Three other co-accused, all from West London, deny the charges. They are: Nyall Hamlett, 25, Nathan Cuffy, 26, and Suhaib Majeed, 21. Some of them are also variously charged with firearms offences.

Trial judge Mr Justice Wilkie instructed the jury to formally find Hassane guilty and said he would be sentenced on a future date. e adjourned the case until Monday.
