| Woman admits owning terror files | |
| 2009-11-02 | |
| A woman who was caught with a computer memory stick containing documents on how to make explosives has pleaded guilty to terror charges. Houria Chahed Chentouf, 41, admitted two counts of possessing documents likely to be useful for a terrorist purpose at Manchester Crown Court. The stick fell out of her sleeve when she was being interviewed at Liverpool John Lennon Airport, the court heard. The Moroccan national was arrested at her home in Manchester the next day.
Chentouf was charged under the Terrorism Act 2000 following her arrest on the evening of 17 October by Greater Manchester Police. She appeared at Manchester Crown Court on Monday morning and will be sentenced later. The mother-of-six lived in The Hague for more than 20 years and the Dutch authorities were also involved in the inquiry. | |

| #3 Redneck Jim, if both the Brits and the Dutch have been watching Ms Chentouf, either she is not an innocent or those who gave her the memory stick were not. This is not the kind of thing one normally carries across national borders. |

| #2 She had :Information"? By that criteria I have a "Terror manual, it's a US Government publication "Improvised Munitions" printed by the US Army. same info, How to make and use Explosives, Pipe guns, Bombs and Grenades, so what, it's the will to use, not the knowledge thereof. |
