Terror plot trio sentenced to life in prison

Three men were today sentenced to life in prison after being convicted of plotting to kill hundreds of people in a terrorist attack.

Ibrahim Savant, Arafat Waheed Khan and Waheed Zaman, who were recruited by the ring leader of an al-Qaida-inspired plot to detonate home-made liquid bombs on transatlantic jets, were told they would serve minimum terms of 20 years.
