14-year-old boy from Blackburn arrested for plotting ANZAC day terror attack in Melbourne


#ISIS #AnzacDay #Melbourne #Lancashire #Blackburn It was an ISIS-inspired terror plot in which a 14-year-old boy of Lancashire was involved. The plot was to hack down policemen in Melbourne on ANZAC Day to commemorate the First World War as reported in dailymail.co.uk dated 20 April 2015.
As per information, the teenager from Blackburn, Lancashire, had reportedly been in contact with people from Australia who were planning to use knives and swords to hack officers to death in Melbourne on Anzac Day.
It has been revealed by Greater Manchester Police that the 14-year-old was first arrested on April 2 after police intercepted communications between him and an Australian man – the communication was related to a planned terrorist attack. The boy was subsequently re-arrested on suspicion of being connected in the commission, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism. He is currently in custody of the police and is under interrogation.
When the police of Greater Manchester came to know about the alleged plot, they tipped off Australian authorities who swooped on the terror suspects and arrested five men.
The police are now augmenting security for a string of Anzac Day events that are scheduled in London – these include services at the Cenotaph and Westminster Abbey which would be attended by the Queen, Prince Philip and Prince William.
