Statement - Man convicted for Finsbury Park terror attack

Cllr Richard Watts, leader of Islington Council, said: “The Finsbury Park terror attack had a massive impact on our community, and today’s verdict is a huge relief. Osborne’s cowardly crimes caused great harm, and continue to cause great suffering.

"We again pay tribute to the courage and strength of those who were injured and affected by this attack, especially the family and friends of Makram Ali, and will continue to offer them help and support. This attack failed to drive our community apart, and has instead brought us closer together.”
