| Al-Qaida has substantial presence in Britain, police chief says |
| 2003-02-16 |
| Osama bin Laden's al-Qaida network has a "substantial presence" in Britain, the head of London's Metropolitan Police said Sunday. Sir John Stevens said it was difficult to know how many al-Qaida cells were active in Britain. "But we do know there is a substantial presence, and we are taking action," he told the British Broadcasting Corp. More than 400 troops were stationed at London's Heathrow airport last week and police have bolstered the number of officers at several sites around London. But that guy on the human shields bus said that it was all a figment of Tony's imagination. Y'mean he was lying? |
