DEA for terrorist activity and production of the toxic substance ricin was brought to the teenager accused of assaulting and murdering three girls last July, police and prosecutors announced today. 18-year-old Axel Rudakuwana reportedly, in Southport, northern England last July. The attack shocked all of Britain and led to multi-day riots throughout the country. Police said the murder of the girls at the moment is not treated as a terrorist act. However, following investigations at his home, Rudakubana is now burdened with two other categories: production of a lethal toxin, ricin, and possession of an Al-Qaeda training manual. “We worked extensively with our partners to ascertain that there was little to little danger to the public, and I want to give this clear assurance today,” said Merseyside police director Serena Kennedy. Kennedy stressed that no ricin was found in the site where the children were killed in Southport. Riots broke out in this city after being released on a site with information saying the suspect was a “radicalized Islamic immigrant”. The riots expanded throughout the country, with attacks on hotels where asylum seekers and mosques were staying. Police then tried to deny the rumors that motivated the riots, saying the suspect was born in Britain and there was no connection with him with terrorist organizations. “You may have seen speculation online that police decided to conceal facts from the public. Surely this is not the case,” Kennedy said. “I admit that new charges may lead to speculation. The issue on which Axel Rudakuwana is charged under the Anti-Terror Act does not require the determination of motive. To qualify for a terrorist incident, the motive must be established,” he added. Rudakubana appeared before a court in August, after being prosecuted for three murders and 10 assassination attempts.
