In his ‘suicide note’ which he left on his sister’s laptop on the night, Chowdhury wrote: ‘Tell everyone I love them and that they should struggle against the enemies of Allah with their lives and their property.

“Indeed, those who have believed and emigrated and fought with their wealth and lives in the cause of Allah and those who gave shelter and aided – they are allies of one another. But those who believed and did not emigrate – for you there is no guardianship of them until they emigrate. And if they seek help of you for the religion, then you must help, except against a people between yourselves and whom is a treaty. And Allah is Seeing of what you do.” (Qur’an 8:72)

“‘ISIS-supporting’ Uber driver ‘attacked police with a samurai sword outside Buckingham Palace after leaving a suicide note saying: ‘The Queen and her soldiers will all be in hellfire,”” by Alexander Robertson, Mailonline, December 10, 2018:

An alleged terrorist who attacked police officers with a samurai sword outside Buckingham Palace left a suicide note which read: ‘The Queen will be in hellfire’.

Mohiussunnath Chowdhury drove his Toyota Prius through traffic cones at a marked police van and reached for the blade on August 25 last year, the Old Bailey heard.

The Uber driver was sprayed with CS gas and arrested after shouting ‘Allahu Akbar’ during a scuffle with two officers outside the royal residence, jurors were told.

Chowdhury, 27, drove with a coal black samurai sword and a knife sharpener from his home in Luton, to the road opposite Buckingham Palace.

He then allegedly swerved in front of a police van and the two officers inside had to be taken to hospital after the struggle at 8.30pm.

The terror suspect drew ‘posters’ in prison of an officer being shot by a man shouting ‘Allahu Akbar’, the jury heard.

Chowdhury also sketched a picture of a plane hitting the Twin Towers, the Old Bailey was told.

He then pinned the posters up on his cell wall after he was remanded in custody ahead of his terror trial, it was said….

Prosecutor Timothy Cray told the jury that Chowdhury planned to die as a martyr, fighting in the name of Allah.

In his ‘suicide note’ which he left on his sister’s laptop on the night, Chowdhury wrote: ‘Tell everyone I love them and that they should struggle against the enemies of Allah with their lives and their property.

‘The Queen and her soldiers will all be in hellfire. They go to war with Muslims around the world and kill them without any mercy. They are the enemies Allah tells us to fight.’

The Uber driver, from Luton, accepts he drove his car to the palace then brandished a samurai sword on August 25, 2017.

The Old Bailey heard he now claims he was trying to trigger a ‘death by cop suicide’ and not a terror attack.

But an imitation gun was also found at his flat which prosecutors say could have been used to fool cops instead of the ‘deadly’ sword.

Prosecutor Timothy Cray showed the jury the drawings found inside his cell at Belmarsh Prison on September 27.

One image, scribbled using different colour pens, included a speech bubble from a terrorist with the words ‘Allahu Akbar’, alongside a police officer riddled with bullet holes.

When one of his friends complained that Chowdhury was sending him a documentary about ISIS taking sex slaves, Chowdhury allegedly admitted that he had been radicalised.

Moynoor, the friend, wrote to him on August 19, six days before the attack: ‘Why did u send me that? And what’s your obsession about ISIS and sex slaves?’

Chowdhury replied: ‘I don’t know why I send you these things man’ and Moynoor asked him: ‘Can you stop sending me stuff like that then?’

‘Alright. It’s just information that I wanted to share. Nomsayin [know what I’m saying],’ Chowdhury insisted.

‘Nah. I don’t nomsayyin,’ Moynoor hit back. ‘All this ISIS stuff you message me about. Not cool yaar. I get worried about you. Being radicalised.’

‘Brah [brother] I’m already radicalised,’ Chowdhury replied.

In another online conversation with a friend about the film School of Rock, Chowdhury spoke of his admiration for an al-Qaeda preacher.

Reyan Ali messaged on July 25, four weeks before the attack: ‘U reckon we classify as Muslims? We’re freaks. I plead allegiance to the band of Mr Sneeably [sic, the teacher in School of Rock]. I don’t bow to no man, or dog. I will not fight Mr Sneably for creative control of the band.’

But Chowdhury sent him a video by the al-Qaeda preacher Anwar al-Awlaki, who was killed in a US drone attack, prompting Ali to ask if his friend had joined the missionary group Tablighi Jamaat.

‘I don’t do Tobleek stuff,’ Chowdhury replied. ‘This man died for Islam. His words are true.

The true Islam.’

When Ali questioned why Chowdhury was using the black flag of ISIS as a display picture on Whatsapp, Chowdhury told him: ‘It is a flag that will unite this ummah [Muslim nation].’

He also referenced part ‘9:111’ of the Quran, writing in capital letters: ‘Allah has bought the lives of the believers in exchange for paradise.’

Mr Cray said: ‘These two pieces of paper he pinned up on the wall of his cell, almost like posters.

‘The first headed ‘the exchange or bargain’.

‘It states, with reference to verses from the Holy Quran, which the defendant interprets is an exchange or a bargain – we’re taking it from his point of view.

‘It seems that martyrdom, the exchange for that, an act of martyrdom, is paradise – that’s the interpretation.

‘He has illustrated the exchange or bargain by someone, a masked fighter, shouting Allahu Akbar, firing a gun into the chest of an unarmed, uniformed police officer – it seems outside number 10 Downing Street.

‘The defendant accepts that he drew this.’

A search of his prison cell was then carried after the discovery, which revealed a piece of paper headed ‘TAGHUT’, a term for worship other than of Allah.

The paper, also written mainly in capital letters, included a list of 14 ‘Allies of Satan’.

The top three were ‘USA and all allies’, ‘UK/Canada/Australia’ and EU nations.

Mr Cray then showed jurors the ‘realistic looking’, chrome imitation BB pistol discovered in Chowdhury’s bedroom.

He said: ‘We say that if the defendant really is [saying], ‘all I wanted to do is get myself killed by the confronting armed police’, waving this around outside Buckingham Palace shouting ‘Allahu Akbar’ would do the job pretty well….
