UK’s notorious female terrorist ‘plotting new attack in London’
Intelligence sources have revealed that Britain’s most wanted female terrorist is plotting a major attack in the capital London.
Security sources told the Daily Mirror newspaper that Samantha Lewthwaite, better known as the White Widow, is now plotting an attack in London from her base in the war-torn Yemen.
Lewthwaite, a 35-year-old mother of four, is the widow of Germaine Lindsay, the British-Jamaican terrorist who carried out one of the deadly bomb attacks in London on July 7, 2005.
British intelligence services believe Lewthwaite, who fled Britain to join terrorists in the Horn of Africa region, has had plastic surgery and has put on weight to dodge and international police hunt.
Sources have revealed that she was recently in Dubai to prepare a string of new attacks, including one in London.
One of the sources, who is operating for Britain’s MI6 intelligence service in Nairobi, Kenya, is believed to be very close to Lewthwaite while authorities have described the information received from the person as “credible”.
The source has also said that the White Widow is enjoying a vast network of contacts in Yemen, especially in south of the country where various terrorist groups are operating.
The Daily Mirror said British authorities were closing in on Lewthwaite as they had made a crucial breakthrough in the search for UK’s most wanted woman.
Britain has been faced with increasing threat from home-grown terrorists who have returned from fighting in the Middle East where they once joined terrorist groups like Daesh.
Experts believe government’s loose security controls over the past years should be blamed for the migration hundreds of British nationals to Iraq and Syria to join terrorist organizations.
