Man charged over stabbing of two Jewish men in London
· RTE.ieA 45-year-old man has been charged following a UK Counter Terrorism Policing investigation into an attack during which two men were stabbed in Golders Green in London on Wednesday.
Essa Suleiman has been charged with two counts of attempted murder and one count of possession of a bladed article in a public place in relation to the attack, Metropolitan Police said.
He will appear at Westminster Magistrates' Court today.
Mr Suleiman, of Camberwell, south London, was also charged with attempted murder in relation to a separate incident on the same date in Great Dover Street, Southwark, police said.
Commander Helen Flanagan, head of Counter Terrorism Policing London, said: "Our thoughts remain with the victims involved and specialist officers continue to provide them with support as their recovery continues.
"We are determined to get justice for the victims and now that a person has been charged, I would urge everyone to avoid any further speculation in relation to this case so that justice can run its course."
The Metropolitan Police said pro-Palestine marches across Britain will be assessed after the UK terrorism threat level was raised to "severe" by the Joint Terrorism Analysis Centre yesterday, meaning a terror attack is "highly likely".
The decision is not solely a result of the Golders Green attack, the Home Office said, adding the threat level in the UK has been "rising for some time".
