Home Secretary May is considering banning terror suspects on Terrorism Prevention and Investigation Measures (TPims) from visiting mosques, after a recent suspect absconded from a mosque wearing a burka. May also wants to amend law so as to be able to revoke a terrorist’s passport even if doing so would leave him “stateless.” Trial began for two Pakistani men from Lancashire who had, while aboard a flight from Lahore to Manchester, threatened to blow up the plane and kill passengers and crew members. The court was told that the men were not terrorists but their threats had to be taken seriously.
