‘The Westminster attacker was born in Britain and had previously been investigated for suspected extremism by MI5, Theresa May has confirmed.
The Prime Minister said the probe took place several years ago and that the unnamed suspect was not “part of the current intelligence picture”.
“The police have no reason to believe there are imminent further attacks on the public,” she told MPs gathered in a packed House of Commons.
“Some years ago, he was investigated by MI5 over concerns related to violent extremism.’
