A terrorist who bragged about helping Osama bin Laden mastermind the 9/11 attacks could be freed from a UK prison within days — despite officials declaring him a “risk to national security.”
Haroon Aswat — who previously set up an al-Qaeda training camp in the US — is set to be released from a secure psychiatric hospital unit where he’s currently locked up in the UK after he completes mental health treatment, The Sun reported.
The twisted terrorist will be cut loose without a full risk assessment because of a legal loophole under the country’s Mental Health Act — a decision that’s sparked widespread fury.
“This despicable man was behind one of the most deadly attacks in modern history. He should never experience freedom again,” the country’s shadow justice secretary, Robert Jenrick, said.
In 2015, Aswat — a known associate of bin Laden — was sentenced to 20 years in a US prison after he admitted to trying to start an al-Qaeda training camp in Oregon.

He was deported back to the UK in 2022 after being visited in prison by a British psychiatrist.
Despite British terror police assessing Aswat and warning that he continues to be a security risk, a judge recently determined his release was expected in the “relatively near future” under the country’s mental health laws.
Still, Aswat will only be subjected to a notification order upon his release — meaning he’ll just have to register his address and notify cops of any future travel plans.

Maybe Haroom Asswipe’s location should become general knowledge if he’s released. I’m sure lots of people would want to send him things.
If the far-lefty DemonRATS want to set somebody up for assassination, here’s the pig that needs it.
If he comes our way, I’m sure there is room at Gitmo, he can play checkers with KSM.
