Counterterrorism officers believed twisted Southport killer Axel Rudakubana was just interested in news and current affairs and not in danger of becoming “radicalised”, a leaked Home Office report has revealed.
The Home Office's leaked Prevent learning review is set to slam counterterrorism officers for failing to properly consider Rudakubana's obsession with extreme violence when it is released, according to The Sunday Times. The 18-year-old was sentenced to 52 years in jail this week for the murder of three young girls at a Taylor Swift-themed dance class in Southport over the summer.
Home Secretary Yvette Cooper has highlighted a "serious problem" with cases failing to pass the Prevent threshold while other agencies, such as social services and mental health, failed to step in.She has ordered a through review to assess the "missed opportunities" to identify the murderous threat Rudakubana posed, which is already reportedly underway.
