Student nurse with a grudge took bomb to hospital, court told
A student nurse has been accused of taking a pressure cooker bomb to a maternity ward in Leeds and planning a terrorist attack on an RAF base.
Mohammad Farooq, 27, was due to start a shift at St James’s Hospital last week when he was arrested with the bomb and an imitation firearm, Westminster magistrates’ court was told.
He is accused of having been motivated by an interest in radical Islam when he planned to attack RAF Menwith Hill in North Yorkshire.
