FRENCH counter-terrorist police believe that a Sydney associate of accused terrorist Willie Brigitte used computer programs to plot the layout of Australian military bases and tried to obtain chemicals to make a bomb.

The claim is one of several to be made tomorrow on the Nine Network's Sunday program, based on information provided by investigators.

Others include a suggestion that the Sydney associate and Brigitte were in contact with a "handler" in Pakistan - an alleged member of the terrorist group Lashkar e Toiba (LET).

Authorities in Australia and France have believed since the time of Brigitte's arrest in Sydney on October 7 that he was connected to LET - and by proxy the leadership core of its sponsor, al-Qa'ida. According to Sunday, Brigitte has admitted in official interrogations to training with LET in explosives and other weapons, as well as high-altitude endurance.
