Three men accused of taking part in a terrorist plot in Britain were today remanded in custody.
The men, charged with offences under the Terrorism Act, were arrested following information from the News of the World, which claimed it had uncovered a plan to supply radioactive material for a dirty bomb.
Mr Roque Flaviano Fernandes (43) of De Havilland Road, Edgware; Mr Dominic Agnello Martins (44) of Du Cros Drive, Stanmore, both north-west London and Mr Abdurahman Kanyare (52) of Milling Road, also Edgware, appeared at a brief hearing at Horseferry Road Magistrates' Court.
The court heard that all three faced charges under Section 17 of the Terrorism Act and are accused of having involvement in a plot to supply dangerous radioactive material to a third party between July and September this year.
All three men were arrested in raids last Friday at the Holiday Inn Hotel in Brent Cross and at an address in north London.
The charge put to the three is "that they entered into, or became concerned in, an arrangement as a result of which money or other property was made available, or was to be made available to another, and knew or had reasonable cause to suspect, that it will or may be used for the purposes of terrorism".
The men were remanded in custody to appear before Bow Street Magistrates' Court on November 1st.
