Talk Of Killing Dancers
Updated: 19:40, Thursday May 25, 2006
Members of an alleged British terror cell talked of blowing up London's famous Ministry of Sound nightclub, the Old Bailey has been told.
The jury heard one defendant, Jawad Akbar, said they would not be blamed for killing "those slags dancing around".
In secret recordings made by security surveillance teams, Akbar and Omar Khyam, another member of the alleged al Qaeda-linked cell, appear to discuss possible targets.
Akbar says the central London venue was a soft target for a terror attack, according to the prosecution.
Akbar: "What about easy stuff where you don't need no experience and nothing and you could get a job.
"Yeah, like for example the biggest nightclub in central London where no-one can even turn round and say 'oh they were innocent' those slags dancing around?
"If you went for the social structure where every Tom, Dick and Harry goes on a Saturday night, yeah, that would be crazy."

Khyam: "If you get a job in a bar, yeah, or a club, say the Ministry of Sound, what are you planning to do there then?"
Akbar: "Blow the whole thing up."
Khyam: "That's what I'm saying."
The recording played to the jury was said by the prosecution to have been made at Akbar's then home in Uxbridge, west London, on Sunday February 22, 2004.
Akbar asks Khyam: "Bruv, you don't think this place is bugged, do you?"
Khyam: "No, I don't think it's bugged Bruv."
Khyam, 24, his brother Shujah Mahmood, 19, Waheed Mahmood, 34, and Akbar, 22, all from Crawley, West Sussex, Salahuddin Amin, 31, from Luton, Beds, Anthony Garcia, 23, of Ilford, east London, and Nabeel Hussain, 21, of Horley, Surrey, deny conspiring to cause explosions likely to endanger life between January 1, 2003 and March 31, 2004.
Khyam, Garcia and Hussain also deny a charge under the Terrorism Act of possessing 600kg (1,300lb) of ammonium nitrate fertiliser for terrorism.
Khyam and Shujah Mahmood further deny possessing aluminium powder for terrorism.

Have always wondered if major nightclubs would be a target. All those people, small space and little chance of escape.
Hmm... wonder if I can count being there as a near death experience. |
