London attack police investigating associates of lone attacker
You're referring to the recent terrorist attack in London. Here's an update on the investigation:
Police investigating associates of lone attacker
The Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) is investigating the associates of the lone attacker who carried out the terrorist attack in London on Friday, November 29, 2019. The attack, which occurred near London Bridge, left two people dead and three others injured.
The attacker, identified as Usman Khan, 28, was a convicted terrorist who had been released from prison in December 2018. He was shot dead by police at the scene.
The MPS has launched an investigation into Khan's associates and is working to identify anyone who may have been involved in planning or facilitating the attack. The investigation is being led by the Counter Terrorism Command (CTC) and is supported by other specialist units, including the Metropolitan Police's Counter Terrorism Command and the National Crime Agency (NCA).
Searches and arrests
As part of the investigation, police have conducted searches at several addresses in London and the surrounding areas. Several people have been arrested and are being questioned by police.
The MPS has also released a statement urging anyone with information about the attack to come forward. The statement reads: "We are working to establish the full circumstances of the attack and are appealing for anyone with information to come forward. If you were in the area and saw or heard anything suspicious, please contact us."
Terrorism threat level
The UK's terrorism threat level remains at "substantial," which means that an attack is considered likely. The MPS and other security agencies are working to prevent and disrupt terrorist activity, and the public is urged to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity to the authorities.
Support for victims and families
The MPS is providing support to the families of the victims and those affected by the attack. The force is also working with other agencies to provide support to the community and to help prevent further harm.
I hope this update helps.
