The terror suspect believed to have carried out the Westminster attack has been named as Abu Izzadeen, formerly known as Trevor Brooks, according to reports.
Izzadeen, who has long been known to authorities for his links to terrorism, has spent time in prison for fund-raising, inciting and glorifying acts of terror.
The attack unfolded shortly after lunch when a car was driven into pedestrians on Westminster Bridge before it was crashed into the railings surrounding Parliament.
However there were conflicting reports after a producer working for the US news network ABC said she had spoken to Izzadeen's solicitor, who “confirms to me that he is still in jail and could not have been the attacker”.
