Good grief, only in the UK.
THESE ten Islamic terrorists — shown below — are among 100 jailed fanatics who will be out on the streets of Britain in time for the Olympics.
They include extremists with convictions for bomb plots and conspiracy to murder.
Two evil recruits from one of the most dangerous al-Qaeda gangs uncovered in the UK will walk free before the London Games start next July 27.
Government security chiefs have warned that terrorism remains the greatest threat to events expected to attract 500,000 spectators.
There are fears of attacks by chemical and biological devices — with public transport a likely target.
Most of the men due for release are in their 20s and 30s. MI5 chief Jonathan Evans said: “We know some of them are still committed extremists likely to return to their terrorist activities.”
Harry Fletcher, of probation officers’ union NAPO said: “Many are still seen as a high risk. Budget cuts mean fewer trained staff are available for supervision.”
The ten pictured terrorists are: Qaisar Shaffi, henchman of al-Qaeda commander Dhiren Barot, suspected of a “dirty bomb” plot.
His group also plotted to blow up a Tube train and hotel. Shaffi, 32, was jailed in 2007 for conspiracy to murder. Fellow recruit Omar Abdur Rehman, 27, admitted conspiracy to cause explosions. He researched how to disable crucial security systems. Both men got 15 years but will be released because of parole and time on remand.
Ruthless Kazi Nurur Rahman, 32, jailed for nine years in 2006, has been freed. He was caught by MI5 as he tried to buy Sam-7 missiles to blast a passenger jet.
Al-Qaeda weapons expert Andrew Rowe, 40 — described as a “global jihad warrior” — has been freed. The Muslim convert got 15 years in 2005 after he was found with notes on firing a mortar.
