UK DESPERATE TO FIND 3 WOULD-BE TERRORISTS WHO HAVE ESCAPED SURVEILLANCE

BBC: Scotland Yard are hunting three men who are believed to have absconded from control orders imposed under the Prevention of Terrorism Act.
Police say Lamine Adam, 26, his brother, Ibrahim, 20, and Cerie Bullivant, 24, have been missing for more than 24 hours and may be together. Members of the public are being warned not to approach them, but to call 999. ... Control orders place a type of house arrest on those suspected of international terrorism.

Police launched the appeal for help tracing the men by releasing their names, descriptions and pictures after all three failed to make contact with authorities.
... The Adam brothers did not contact a monitoring company on Monday evening. ...

The Home Office said there are 17 people currently on control orders. In total, six people have absconded from control orders.
Earlier on Wednesday, in a break with the practice adopted after the previous incidents, Mr Reid asked the High Court to lift the three men's anonymity to help with the police investigation.
The fact that they lifted anonymity of these three (out of the six) means to me that they are considered more dangerous.

Is a plot afoot? One we've been warned about?
