Bombers had Sizewell B plans

11 July 2007

[BBC, 10 July] Documents including "detailed plans" of Sizewell B were found in a car connected to the failed bomb attacks on the London transport system of 21 July 2005. An unidentified expert told the BBC that he had distributed the notes at a series of university lectures, and that they originated from the Sizewell B public enquiry. The expert said that the bombers had held the documents for "at least two years". Police could release the information only after the conviction of Muktar Ibrahim, Yassin Omar, Ramzi Mohammed and Hussain Osman. They were each sentenced to life imprisonment to serve a minimum of 40 years on 9 July. Two other men face a retrial.
