A suspected terrorist who tried to mow down cyclists and police with his car outside parliament in 2018

Sudanese-born British national Salih Khater, seen here arriving in a van for Monday’s court appearance, is accused of driving into cyclists and police officers in London last week

The Sudanese-born British national failed to hit anyone in the incident and ended up crashing the car into security barriers outside the Houses of Parliament. “His actions were not a mistake or as a result of some kind of mechanical error to his vehicle,” the prosecutor added.The reason for the 30-year-old’s actions have remained unclear but the location and targeting of police officers suggested a “terrorist motive”, according to Morgan.

At the outset of the trial jurors watched CCTV footage of Khater driving his silver Ford Fiesta at cyclists before crashing into barriers protecting parliament as two uniformed police officers dived out of the way.
