London Bridge terrorists who killed seven in van and knife rampage

ByRussell Myers,

Two of the terrorists who rampaged through London Bridge killing seven and injuring 49 have been unmasked.

Khuram Shazad Butt, 27, Rachid Redouane, 30, and a third jihadist drove a rented van into crowds before calmly strolling into Borough Market and stabbing multiple victims on Saturday night.

The trio were gunned down by counter terror cops who neutralised the threat within eight minutes of being called to the scene.

Butt, also known as “Abz”, is believed to be the killer wearing an Arsenal shirt pictured lying on the ground outside the Wheatsheaf pub.

The former security guard and Transport for London worker from Barking, east London, was known to police after associating with extremist Muslim preachers.

He appeared on a Channel 4 documentary last year titled “The Jihadist Next Door” where he unfurled an ISIS-style flag in London’s Regent’s Park.

At least two individuals have claimed they reported him to the anti-terrorist hotline as his radical views emerged over the last two years.

Redouane, who also lived in the Barking and Dagenham area, is believed to have been identified from an Irish ID card found in his pocket after he was executed by armed cops.

He is understood to be of Moroccan descent and had previously been living in Dublin.
