Birmingham bomb plot: Terror cell jailed

Eleven members of a Birmingham terror cell that planned an attack to rival the 7 July and 9/11 atrocities have been jailed.

The ringleader, Irfan Naseer, from Birmingham, was given a life sentence and was told he would spend at least 18 years in jail.

Police say the plot to detonate rucksack bombs could have been more devastating than the 7 July attacks in London.
