A man has pleaded not guilty over an alleged terrorist attack near a London mosque that left one man dead and several others injured.

Darren Osborne, 48, was charged with terrorism-related murder and attempted murder after a van was driven into worshippers in Finsbury Park, north London, on 19 June.

He entered his plea at a 15-minute hearing at the Old Bailey in central London on Friday, appearing before Mrs Justice Cheema-Grubb via videolink from Belmarsh prison.

His trial was scheduled to start on 22 January at Woolwich crown court.

The attack happened just after midnight on 19 June when a rented van was driven into worshippers leaving Muslim Welfare House after prayers for Ramadan. Makram Ali, 51, died from his injuries and 11 others were wounded.
