The teenager who killed three girls in the British town of Southport has been charged separately with terrorism and manufacturing poison. This is reported by Sky News with reference to the head of the police of the county of Merseyside Serena Kennedy.

Earlier, Axel Rudakubana was charged with the murder of three people and the attempted murder of 10 others. A police spokeswoman said two more charges were brought after searches at his home.

According to Kennedy, ricin poison was found in the dwelling. Investigators also found a training manual of a terrorist organisation in the house.
The teenager has been charged with ‘manufacturing a biological toxin, (...) contrary to section 1 of the Biological Weapons Act 1974’ and possessing information that could ‘be used to commit or prepare a terrorist act, contrary to section 58 of the Terrorism Act 2000’, a police spokeswoman said.
The Southport tragedy took place on 29 July. Rudakubana, the son of Rwandan nationals, attacked visitors to The Hart Space community centre with a knife. Three girls aged six, seven and nine died. Eight other children and two adults were injured.

After the attack, riots broke out in Britain. The rioters were against migrants. During the unrest, about 1.3 thousand people were detained. Dozens of police officers were injured. About 400 rioters were detained, some were sentenced to up to nine years' imprisonment.
