Burnopfield terror suspect had stash of deadly poison

Earlier this week Davison junior, an unemployed former milkman’s assistant, appeared in the same court accused of a single terrorist offence.

He was charged under Section 58 of the Terrorism Act 2000, and was bailed to return to his home in Grampian Way, Annfield Plain, Stanley, which he shares with his mother and three siblings.

Bail conditions mean he must observe an overnight curfew, reports to local police and wear an electronic tag.

The conditions also ban him from contacting his father, using a mobile phone, the internet or a camera, or contacting members of a racist group known as the Aryan Strike Force.

Durham Police said the arrests followed a long-running intelligence-led operation against suspected right-wing activity.

Specialist officers carried out what they described as a “meticulous” search of Mr Davison Snr’s home.

Germ warfare experts in white toxic suites scoured the house for evidence.

It has now been confirmed by Government scientists at Porton Down that a jam jar, found in the property last week, did contain traces of ricin, a highly-toxic poison.
