A senior counter-terror police officer wrongly thought probation officers knew that a released terrorist may be planning an attack, an inquest has heard.
Usman Khan, 28, murdered two people at a rehabilitation event at Fishmongers’ Hall in London in November 2019.
He launched the attack 11 months after being freed from prison, where he had served a sentence for attempting to set up a terrorist training camp in Pakistan.
Khan was being investigated by MI5, covertly monitored and overtly managed by police and probation officers.

Fishmongers' Hall attack inquests: Senior counter-terror officer wrongly thought probation knew Usman Khan could be planning attack

Officials who managed Khan after he was freed and participated in public protection meetings have said they did not know about the attack-planning intelligence.
Kenneth Skelton, Khan’s probation officer, previously told the inquests that if he had been told, “the whole management process would have been altered”, potentially including the decision to let Khan attend the event where he launched the attack.
Detective Chief Inspector Ryan Chambers, of the West Midlands Police Counter-Terrorism Unit, said he had “no reason to think” that probation and other agencies did not know of Khan’s feared intentions.
DCI Chambers was the senior investigating officer for the covert investigation into Khan, which was conducted alongside MI5.
