London: A 41-year-old
Briton has been charged with plotting a terrorist attack on an
airport, after chemicals like nitric acid and sulphuric acid were
found at his house.
Police raided the house of Duncan Railton, who works at a
chemical company, in Warlingham, Surrey, and found the acids and
yellow phosphorous sticks, The Sun reported.
The man shared the house with his mother and brother.
Officials also alleged that Railton intended to target a bus.
"Many of the items are capable, when mixed, of producing
explosives. Railton had the materials, capability and knowledge to
carry out the attacks," prosecutors told a court in Surrey.
He was charged with possessing chemicals with an intent to cause
grievous bodily harm. The man was remanded in custody till Nov 7.
