LONDON: British police have charged three men under anti-terrorism laws, a spokesman said on Sunday. The men, aged 34, 39 and 42, will appear in court on Monday charged with conspiring to provide money or property "knowing or having reasonable cause to suspect that it may be used for the purpose of terrorism". The 39-year-old was further charged with "directing the activities of an organisation which is concerned in the commission of acts of terrorism". A spokesman for London's Metropolitan Police said the men would not be named before their court appearance for "operational reasons". The charges were not linked to the July 7 attacks on London's transport network which killed 52 people and four bombers or a second wave of failed attacks two weeks later, a police source said. The men were arrested in Worcestershire, western England, on Dec 5. At the time of their arrests, police said they were being held as part of an investigation into "international terrorism overseas". Detectives did not say where the alleged activity had taken place or give the nationalities of those arrested. The men are due to appear at Bow Street Magistrates Court in central London on Monday.
