UK bomb plot suspect refuses to give trial evidence

LONDON (Reuters) - Britain's biggest post 9/11 terrorism trial -- an alleged plot to bomb targets including night clubs and shopping centers -- was brought to a dramatic halt on Monday when a key defendant refused to answer questions from his own lawyer.

Omar Khyam, a British Muslim, is accused with six other men of planning the attacks.

On the start of the third day of his evidence, Khyam was asked by his lawyers about his purchase of 600 kg of fertilizer and why he had stored it.

But Khyam, 24, from West Sussex, refused to answer, saying he feared he might endanger his family back in Pakistan.
