Police officers at the scene of last Thursday’s anti-terror raid in northwest London

The woman shot by police in a counter terrorism raid in northwest London last week has been discharged from hospital and taken into police custody.

The 21-year-old was admitted for her injuries sustained on Thursday evening when armed police swooped on a flat in a quiet street of Willesden.

She joins six other people arrested on suspicion of the commission, preparation or instigation of terrorism in raids at the address in Harlesden Road and another property in Kent.

The flat in Willesdon had been under observation before police acted on intelligence suggesting a terror plot was imminent.

The shooting came on the same day counter terrorism police seized Khalid Mohamed Omar Ali, 27, with a bag of knives in Whitehall, in an unrelated incident. Today
