Ali Harbi Ali, age 25 and from North London, has been charged with murder and the preparation of terrorist acts, contrary to Section 5 of the Terrorism Act, 2006. Ali remains in custody, and will appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court this afternoon. It remains the case that no other arrests have been made and at this time, we are not seeking anybody else in relation to this incident. There has been considerable speculation in the media about the background, history and motivation of the man now charged. I understand the interest in these questions, and of course they form part of our investigation. However, now charges have been brought, we will not be providing further information on any aspects of this case.
