A 'despicable' terrorist who confessed to his role in 9/11 and the July 7 bombings is set to be freed from prison within days despite officials declaring him a 'risk to national security'. Haroon Aswat, 50, could be released from a secure hospital unit in the UK without a full risk assessment due to his mental health treatment. He was jailed in 2015 in the US for 20 years having admitted trying to start a terrorist training camp in Oregon. Aswat was visited by a British psychiatrist in America before he was deported back to Britain in 2022 where he declared: 'I'm a terrorist.'
