Six men planned “murderous suicide bombings” on public transport in London on 21 July 2005, a court has heard.
The prosecution alleges they were involved in an “extremist Muslim plot” targeting the capital – 14 days after the “carnage” of the 7 July bombings.
Muktar Ibrahim, Manfo Asiedu, Hussein Osman, Yassin Omar, Ramzi Mohammed and Adel Yahya all deny conspiracy to murder and cause explosions.
The trial at Woolwich Crown Court in London could last up to four months.
Prosecutor Nigel Sweeney QC said the six – all originally from Africa but living in London – chose a date for their plan “just 14 days after the carnage of July 7″.
