sA new category has been quietly added to British anti -terrorism schemes, even a few years before AXEL RUDAKUBANA started Southport attack. Label “”Mixed, unstable, or unclear ideologyIt was the aim of covering many cases that were flagged as potential security threats, but did not meet existing boxes such as Muslims and extreme right extremism. 。
“In such a case, individuals may not have consistent ideology or single ideology, but they may still bring the risk of terrorism,” said the official bulletin that announced the change in 2017. He warned the significant increase in these types of cases. By the time the 13 -year -old Rudak Bana was set up to prevent it in November 2019, more than half of all referrals to the scheme were put in a “mixed, unstable, or unclear ideology” bracket. The ratio is the children who were more involved in the case.
Former advanced terrorist police officers, this program may be crazy about violence, but lacks the threats of Ludakbana, such as Ludakbana, which lacks the ideological motivation necessary to meet the legal definition of British terrorism. We raised concerns that we could not incorporate it.
From 2018 to 2023, Paul Betts, a coordinator of terrorism police police, has stated that the system that supports triage processes and risk evaluations has been promoted by “attachment to ideology”. Ta.
“The whole system is prepared around it,” he added. “It's an ideology or not, but it's a very narrow line, but we want to make incredibly difficult decisions to third -year students at the forefront of the process.
An important problem to filter the referral is “What is your ideology?” “
Rudakubana's first introduction to prevent it was by a teacher studying shooting at American schools in the latter half of 2019 IT classes.
In February 2021, he was 14 years old, and after posting an image of Libya's dictator Muammar Gaddafi on Instagram, he was flagged again, and two months later he was the third time rather than the Internet search on the London Bridge Terrot attack. I received a report.
Every time, Ludak Bana fell into a “mixed, unstable, or unclear ideology” category, and the authorities decided not to enter him in a spontaneous channel intervention program.
On July 29, last year, he joined the Holiday Club on the Southport's Taylow Wift, stabbed 11 children and two adults, killing Alice da Silva Agia (9).
The internal review conducted by the Ministry of Home Affairs revealed that the incident should not be closed. Secretary of Inspector Ivet Cooper summarizes the survey results that “without considering the vulnerabilities of extreme or not considering whether he is considered or not. I was hooked on the slaughter and extreme violence.
“Cooper's comments are more focused on ideology from the independent reviews entrusted by the Conservative Government, and” the most fatal threats in the last 20 years have come from Islam “. It's been less than two years since we called for re -adjustment. 。
Official reports prevented the staff from being treated as “the essential part of the trajectory against terrorism” and argued that “radicalization requires ideology or subscriptions.”
This was a previous warning that there were more cases that passed through places that individuals did not register in a consistent belief.
The conservative commissioned reviews are widely criticized within the counter -terror police, and BETTS, which was published in the release, stated: It was an opportunity to miss. “
He stated that the current system means that police, which handle non -ideology introductions, is “facing the choice of dropping them or chucking. [the Channel programme] And because there is no alternative, I want the best thing. “
According to a police survey on Southport's attack, Rudak Bana has been watching violence and Gore, corpse images and videos, the victims of torture, beheading, and the images and videos depicting violence and rape. It became clear that it has a fixed. Teenager has accessed a combination of books related to conflicts such as Gaza, Ukraine, Sudan, South Korea, Iraq, and Valkans, academic paper, leaflet, and manual, and acknowledged the knife to school at the age of 13.
The Police for Terrorism defends the decision to not ensure that Ludak Bana is not included in the channel collapse process, and has instead introduced it to institutions such as mental health and social services that have cooperated with teenagers. “At that time, there were no clear ideology or vulnerabilities of extreme, but there were definitely vulnerabilities and needs, and there was a wider partnership correspondence around him.” Vicky EvansNationwide coordinator for the British terrorist countermeasures.
“At that point, our understanding of” mixed and unstable ideology “is still developing, and a huge amount of work is on this task that more and more unclear individuals will enter the system. She was ongoing, “she said at a press conference. “Now we are away from that classification.”
Currently, it is divided into various categories, such as shooting at school and “Insel”, but the photos are not so confusing.
Until March 2024, the higher -ranking category was “there is a vulnerability, but there is no risk of ideology or terrorism” (36 %), then extreme right wings (19 %), “conflict ideology”. (18 %), and then followed. Islamic (13 %).
After the newsletter promotion
Until he retired in February last year, Tim Jack, an advanced coordinator of terrorism police, said that the type of material seen by Ludakbana was “unusual for Ludakbana.”
“Like those who have identified ideology,” he said. Do you see and talk about it?
It is not easy to make these decisions. They are the decision of life and death. The system has adapted due to the evolution of the threat, but this tragedy clearly raises more questions. “
Jack warns that, although the government is facing whether the government prevents or creates different systems, expanding the pools of people who are considered a potential threat can have unintended results. Was stated.
“The problem is about volume, priority, and resources,” he said. “The wider the hopper, the more noise that must be excluded. This has the risk that the effect of the system is reduced.”
The government pledged to consider changes in the terrorist method, vow to “consider the entire anti -emission system”, prevent a wider public investigation, and publish a review of Rudak Bana's handling reviews. He said.
Tim squirrel, who is studying extremist movement at a strategic dialogue, stated that Southport attack has exposed a “large -scale systematic disability that needs reform.”
“Prevention is not set to deal with the threats we see more and more,” he said.
“Jihade -based terrorism, which has been motivated by an ideologic group -based ideology in the form of an al -Qaeda or ISIS, is still the biggest threat to the United Kingdom at the national security level, but it is more suitable for us. There is an individual engaged in terrible violence.
The squirrel pointed out the primus shooting in 2021. There, 22 -year -old Jake Davison killed five people in a rampage, and did not declare a terrorist attack, like Southport, because there was no ideology motive. He was previously introduced to prevention.
Another example of recent large -scale violence in the UK is the 2023 nottingham attack. Valdo Calocane Before pushing the van into a pedestrian, he pierced two students and one caretaker, and pierced the massive stab wound in 2020, living as an exile for Glasgow Hotel.
In the summer of 2020, Teenager, who had been killed in the two sisters, Nicols Malman and Viva Henry, believe that he had signed a devil to sacrifice women in return for victory. After this, a lottery in a park in London. The 18 -year -old violent material, Danial Hussein, was immersed in online, but has been influenced by the occult that causes international concerns after many terrorism and murder. Ta.
Squirrel stated that British security mechanisms are struggling to adapt to a mixed Otic situation.
“What is needed is a lap aloud care that includes social services and mental health services. This is not a pure security state, but a variety of systems that these people should intervene before engaging in violence.” I said. “We can't prevent all cases, but it's not a terrorized subset, but it is a matter of seeing a large -scale violence as a problem.
“It is necessary to recognize violence as public health issues and invest in prevention instead of picking up works.”
