Man released on bail over 'terrorist manual'
A man accused of possessing an al-Qaeda training manual has been released on bail after appearing before City of Westminster Magistrates' Court.
Khalid Khaliq, 34, from Beeston in Leeds was arrested in May 9 along with three other people, including the widow of one of the bombers.
Hasina Patel, 29, who was married to Mohammad Sidique Khan was later released without charge, along with two other men - her brother Arshad Patel, 30, and 22-year-old Imran Motala.
Mr Khaliq, an unemployed father-of-three, was accused of possessing "a document, or record, namely the Al-Qaeda training manual, containing information of a kind likely to be useful to a person committing or preparing an act of terrorism."
The charge carries a maximum sentence of ten years in prison.
Mr Khaliq's solicitor said that his client denied the charge.
The case has been adjourned until July 2.
In April, three men were charged with conspiring with the four men who carried out the July 7 attacks. Mohammed Shakil, 30, Sadeer Saleem, 26 and Waheed Ali, 23, have been remanded in custody until June 8.
Fifty-two people were killed and more than 750 were injured when bombers carried out attacks on three Tube trains and a bus in London on July 7 2005.
The bombers, Mohammed Sidique Khan, 30, Shehzad Tanweer, 22, Germaine Lindsay, 19, and Hasib Hussain, 18, also died in the attacks.
