Jury out in July 7 terror trial

The jury in the trial of three men accused of helping the July 7 suicide bombers plan their attack by carrying out a two-day reconnaissance mission in London has retired to consider its verdicts.

Waheed Ali, Sadeer Saleem and Mohammed Shakil visited the London Eye, the Natural History Museum and the London Aquarium while allegedly pinpointing potential targets during the trip seven months before the 2005 atrocity.

The trio, from Beeston, Leeds, deny conspiring with the four bombers and others unknown to cause explosions between November 17 2004 and July 8 2005.
