Lewis Hawkes, 36, is charged with five counts of attempted murder and additional assault and robbery offences linked to an incident in Edinburgh last Friday evening. Multiple outlets report that Hawkes appeared at Edinburgh Sheriff Court for a private hearing. The charges are described as “terrorism-linked” or “terrorism connected,” and are connected to alleged anti-Muslim attacks in the city. One report also describes the incident as occurring following prayers at a mosque and involving men being stabbed, while other coverage focuses on the alleged attacks themselves and the terrorism-related nature of the prosecution’s case. The Daily Mail reports that Hawkes faces five allegations of attempted murder and three allegations of assault and robbery. BBC reporting states he is charged with five counts of attempted murder in connection with the alleged attacks. The reports do not provide details of the evidence presented in court or the specific allegations beyond the charge numbers and the broad description of the incident. Hawkes is expected to be dealt with through the court process.
