Police are deeming a surveillance operation which tracked the movements of three men plotting a terrorist attack a "success", after managing to foil the attempt.
Irfan Naseer, 31, Irfan Khalid, 27, and Ashik Ali, 27, all from Birmingham, were convicted at Woolwich Crown Court of planning the attack.

The three men convicted wanted to be remembered as the suicide bombers who had committed the worst atrocity ever seen on British soil.
