An Italian official has confirmed to the Guardian that Italian authorities alerted their British counterparts when Youssef Zaghba moved to London after he was stopped from travelling to Syria.
He was stopped at Marconi airport in Bologna on 15 March 2016 travelling with only a backpack and a one-way ticket to Istanbul, according to Corriere della Serra. He had told his mother he was going to Rome, and he became agitated as soon as he was stopped and his passport and mobile were impounded. He had video and images of religious content on his phone, but nothing significant in terms of jihadi fundamentalism, the paper reported.
He was interrogated but was ultimately released. An Italian official confirmed to the Guardian that Italian authorities alerted their British counterparts when Zaghba moved to London.
According to another Italian newspaper, La Repubblica, the material on his phone included propaganda videos and religious sermons that confirmed his wish to join Islamic State.
The paper reported that a review court, known as the tribunale del riesame, decided there was insufficient evidence of terrorism to charge him, but the Italian security services sent an alert to London with the information gathered from the mobile phone and from other checks carried out in Bologna, understood to have included searches of his mother’s home. The paper reported that a complete dossier would have been forwarded to MI5 in April 2016.
It also said that because he had Italian citizenship he could not be deported for suspected jihadi values.

The transport and travel trade industries union, the TSSA, has said the foreign secretary, Boris Johnson, must be held to account for “the serious lapse in security procedures” on the tube during his tenure as mayor of London, after it was reported that one of the London Bridge killers was employed as a Transport for London trainee for six months last year.
The TSSA general secretary, Manuel Cortes, said applying to be a customer service assistant for TFL should take 4-6 months. The application would normally include two interviews, suitability tests and the application of security protocols.
So this London Bridge killer will have applied for his position between October and December 2015 at the same time Boris was bludgeoning through nearly a 1,000 job cuts on the tube – which would downgrade safety procedure on the tube and take out all all 242 staff in the specialist CCTV monitoring unit.
But downgrading the security of London was part of a wider political agenda. In 2010 in London there were 4,607 PCSOs [police community support officers], and today there are 1,487 – that is a 68% cut thanks to Tory mayor Boris and Tory home secretary [Theresa] May.
Like Theresa May, Boris neither valued the opinion of British Transport Police, London’s Met police nor tube union warnings that his actions would imperil security.

Theresa May expects security service review
Theresa May has said she expects police and security services to launch a review after three terrorists slipped through the net to launch the devastating attack at London Bridge, PA reports.
The prime minister sidestepped questions over whether Boris Johnson was right to say the public would be asking questions about how the attackers were missed.
Security services have come under pressure after it emerged one of the attackers, Khuram Butt, 27, had been reported to the anti-terror hotline in 2015.
Asked about the foreign secretary’s comments, May told Sky News: “I absolutely recognise people’s concerns.”
During a visit to Bangor, north Wales, the PM said a review had been launched after the Manchester bombing and she expected the same process to be launched following Saturday’s rampage, when seven people were killed.
“MI5 and the police have already said they would be reviewing how they dealt with Manchester and I would expect them to do exactly the same in relation to London Bridge,” she said.
“What the government needs to do, and what the government that comes in after Thursday’s election needs to be willing to do, is to give more powers to the police and security service when they need them, needs to deal with this issue of terrorism and extremism online and also needs to be able to call out extremism here in the United Kingdom.”

The head of the Ramadham Foundation, a community cohesion campaign, says he was verbally abused by one of the London Bridge attackers, Khuram Butt.
The group’s chief executive, Mohammed Shafiq, said the incident was reported to the police and raised further questions for the authorities.
In a statement, he said:
“I was verbally assaulted by Khuram Butt, one of the London Bridge killers, the day after the brutal murder of Lee Rigby in May 2013. This took place on College Green, Westminster. Khuram Butt was with Anjem Choudhury, the well-known extremist and terrorist sympathiser.
Khuram Butt called me a ‘murtad’, which means traitor in Arabic, and accused me of being a government stooge when I confronted Anjem Choudhury about him supporting terrorism and my public campaign against Lee Rigby’s murder.
The police turned up and Anjum, Khuram Butt and two other men were escorted away towards Millbank and I stayed in College Green.
It is clear that Anjem Choudhury and his band of terrorist sympathisers were known to the police for many years. Many of us in the British Muslim community have been demanding action against these extremists to no avail. I am not surprised that Khuram Butt carried out the terrorist attack and there are serious questions for the authorities.
As in the Manchester terrorist attack, members of the Muslim community are reporting their suspicions about potential extremists which reinforces the strong links between the Muslim community and the police.
What is clear that Anjem Choudhury, Khuram Butt and their group of terrorist sympathisers have been known to authorities and nothing was done for years.
I call for an immediate investigation into what the police knew, what was done and why action was not taken against them.”

Glastonbury festival has announced extra security measures following the attacks in Manchester and Borough Market, urging festival-goers to pack as little as possible.
All those attending the festival in Somerset’s Worthy Farm in two weeks will be subject to extra searches of their vehicles and bags as they enter.
The organisers warned that the queues would be longer and the entrance would be slower as a result of the tightened security measures. More than 200,000 people will attend the festival at the end of June, which is headlined by Radiohead, Foo Fighters and Ed Sheeran.
“We encourage you to pack as light as you can,” said an announcement on the festival website. “The less you bring, the quicker you’ll get through the gates. As a general rule, we would ask you to only bring as much as you can carry yourself.”
Those with large luggage and trolleys will undergo separate searches, and organisers asked that everything brought on to the site is labelled with a name and mobile number.
They added: “Please think: do you really need that camping chair? Can you manage without that extra food and drink? Remember, you can buy pretty much anything you need here on site.”

Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS foundation trust in London has confirmed that Kirsty Boden, the Australian nurse killed on Saturday, worked at its hospitals and hailed her as “one in a million” and “one of our own”.
“It is with great sadness that we can confirm that a member of Guy’s and St Thomas’ staff tragically died during the London Bridge terror attack on Saturday 3 June”, the trust said in a statement.
“Kirsty Boden, 28, who was originally from Australia, worked as a staff nurse in theatres recovery at Guy’s hospital. Her next of kin, as well as staff colleagues, have been informed. We are offering support to staff at this extremely difficult and distressing time.”
Dame Eileen Sills, the trust’s chief nurse, said: “As the chief nurse of Guy’s and St Thomas’, I cannot put into words how sad I am that we have lost one of our own.
“Kirsty was an outstanding nurse and a hugely valued member of the staff team in theatres recovery, described by her colleagues as ‘one in a million’ who always went the extra mile for the patients in her care.
“Our thoughts at this time are with her family, her loved ones and our staff who have lost a dear friend and colleague.”
It is still unclear exactly how Boden died in the attacks.

Isis videos were found on Youssef Zaghba’s phone when it was confiscated in March, according to the Italian daily Repubblica.
The Tribunale del Riesame, an Italian review court, decided there was insufficient evidence of terrorism to charge him, the paper reported.
As Zaghba had Italian citizenship he couldn’t be deported for suspected jihadi sympathies, it pointed out.
The Italian security services said they shared information about Zaghba with British intelligence and would have forwarded a dossier on him in April 2016 after he was stopped from flying to Turkey.

Corriere Della Sera’s report that the British authorities were informed that Zaghba had been stopped at Bologna airport in March 2016 as he tried to board a flight on his way to Syria raises the question of what action the Home Office took on his return to Britain.
The Home Office has powers to block foreign nationals who have travelled to fight in Syria and Iraq from travelling to the UK “on the basis of the threat they pose”.
At the very least he should have been placed on a watchlist preventing him from boarding an aircraft to or from the UK. The Home Office declined to comment on these issues “while an investigation is ongoing”.
Scotland Yard said he was “not a police or MI5 subject of interest”.
