The facts date back to some time ago, but they have come to light in recent days, by means of some recordings submitted to the jury in a trial for suspected terrorism. According to the newspaper The Indipendent, a man accused of planning a terrorist attack allegedly told an undercover agent of a plan devised to poison the royal family.
Sahayb Abu, 27, currently on trial at the Old Bailey – after being accused of purchasing edged weapons, a balaclava and gloves while allegedly plotting a terrorist attack during the pandemic – reportedly reported, in a conversation he had with an undercover agent, that someone who was in prison (presumably his brother) had informed him of the existing aims towards the royal family and in particular Prince George.
Abu and the agent had met in Surrey Quays, south-east London, because the undercover officer wanted to find out if Abu was looking for a gun and if he was potentially planning a terrorist attack.
On that occasion, the two also had the opportunity to discuss other topics, including Abu’s brother who had been sentenced to 28 years in prison for talking about poisoning the royal family with ice cream. According to a transcript of the meeting, Abu would have described, specifically, the attack on Prince George planned by the pro-Isis propagandist Husnain Rashid.
The plan, according to Abu, foresaw ice cream poisoning in the store of a famous British ice cream chain, near Kensington Palace, the residence of the Dukes of Cambridge, because the royals “will go to buy ice cream and most likely their son will eat it too”.
Rashid was jailed for life, with a minimum term of 25 years in 2018, for a series of crimes, including the preparation of terrorist acts and the encouragement of terrorism. Sahayb Abu was arrested on 9 July and declares himself unrelated to acts of terrorism, while his imprisoned brother, Mohamed Abu, 31, denies having divulged information on acts of terrorism relating to the royal family. The process continues.
