London Bridge attacker named as Usman Khan, 28London Bridge attacker Usman Khan was jailed for terrorism offences in 2012, the Met said.
He was part of the Stock Exchange plot which was disrupted by MI5 and the police.
He is also understood to have been a supporter of al-Muhijaroun, the extremist group which scores of terrorists were involved with.
He was arrested in December 2010 and released on licence (parole) in December 2018, wearing an electronic tag. He had reportedly been invited to attend the Learning Together conference.
Nine men, including Khan, pleaded guilty on the eve of their trial to plotting to bomb the London Stock Exchange, Big Ben, and Westminster Abbey, and had a handwritten list noting the names and addresses of other potential targets including Boris Johnson, who was then mayor of London.
The sentencing judge identified Khan and two others as “the more serious jihadists” and said they should not be released until they were no longer a threat to the public.
Johnson telegraphed concerns with the parole system in his second press statement late on Friday, telling reporters had “long argued” that it was a “mistake to allow serious and violent criminals to come out of prison early.”
