Man remanded on terror charge

Samir Asli, 29, of St Thomas Road, Finsbury Park, was remanded in custody at Bow Street Magistrates' Court on Monday.

He spoke only to confirm his name, age and address. There was no application for bail.

He is due before the same court on 3 February charged with possessing articles for terrorist purposes.

A second man arrested during the raid on 20 January is still being questioned on suspicion of terrorism-related offences.

Four others are in custody for suspected immigration offences and one has been released.

The mosque has been closed and boarded up since the police search was completed.
