Terror trial: Counting the cost
Q: Do these convictions finally prove that there was a British plot to blow up transatlantic airliners using liquid bombs?
Yes, but not as conclusively as the prosecution would have liked. Although convictions were secured against three of the defendants, including ringleader Abdulla Ahmed Ali, 28, the jury acquitted three others of the bomb plot. The jury also failed to reach a verdict on another man.
