Muslims encouraged to launch attacks in Britain
A British Muslim, who claims to have helped recruit more than 200 volunteers to fight for the Taliban, today warned many would return home to launch terrorist attacks in England.
Hassan Butt, aged 22, who was brought up in Manchester but is now based in Pakistan, said he would personally encourage attacks on political and military attacks leaders and government buildings in Britain.
Although some volunteers had been "martyred" during the war in Afghanistan, he warned a "new phase" of terrorism would be launched on Britain and he would encourage Muslims without any hesitation.
Mr Butt also claimed he had returned to Britain for three weeks since the September 11 attacks undetected by the security services.
He said that many of the British volunteers were now in Pakistan "organising operations".
He added: "If they do return to Britain, I do believe they will take military action within Britain."
