Adel Yahya

Adel Yahya (born 1982) is one of six men convicted in connection with alleged attempted bombings in London on 21 July 2005.

He was accused of assisting in the planning of the attacks but not of actually attempting to detonate a bomb himself. At his original trial the jury failed to reach a verdict. Subsequently, he chose to plead guilty to the lesser charge of collecting information useful to a person committing or preparing an act of terrorism.[1] He was sentenced to six years and nine months in prison.[2]
