Terrorism suspect had U.S. images

WASHINGTON — A terror suspect arrested in England had images of the Capitol and other Washington landmarks on his computer, according to federal authorities, who were skeptical that an attack on the nation's capital was being planned.

Younis Tsouli, 22, was one of three men charged with a variety of terrorism offenses. One of the charges against Tsouli alleges that a video stored on the hard drive of a computer in his bedroom showed how to make a car bomb and another showed a number of places in Washington.

A U.S. law-enforcement official who spoke on condition of anonymity said the Capitol was among the locations contained in short video clips. Terrance Gainer, chief of the U.S. Capitol Police, said there had been no serious threat to the Capitol.

Tsouli; Waseem Mughal, 22; and Tariq Al-Daour, 19, made a brief appearance Friday in a London court and were ordered to remain in custody until another court appearance Nov. 18.

Scotland Yard said the arrests were not linked to the July suicide bombings in London, which killed 56 people, including the four attackers.

Mughal was charged with 10 offenses, including conspiracy to murder, conspiracy to cause an explosion, conspiracy to obtain money by deception, fundraising and possession of articles for terrorist purposes.
