A 14-year-old boy is charged with a terrorism offence linked to an alleged plan to target two mosques in south London, police say. The boy cannot be named due to his age. Police describe the alleged offences as being connected to “extreme right-wing terrorism.” According to reporting, he was initially arrested on suspicion of criminal damage to a vehicle in the Sutton area before being charged. The case is set in the context of alleged intentions to attack worshippers at two mosques next month, though details of the alleged plan are provided only in general terms in the coverage. The boy pleads not guilty, and he is remanded in custody. He is expected to appear before the court at Westminster Magistrates’ Court, with the hearing scheduled later this week, reflecting the handling of the matter through the criminal justice process. Coverage across outlets largely agrees on the age of the accused, the terrorism charge, the alleged right-wing extremist linkage cited by police, and the remand and next court appearance.
