Man Charged with Terror-Linked Attacks in Edinburgh
Description
A 36-year-old man, Lewis Hawkes, appeared in court facing five counts of attempted murder and multiple other serious charges—including assault, robbery, and terrorism-related offenses—after a series of alleged anti-Muslim attacks in Edinburgh injured five people. The investigation, led by counter-terrorism units, has sparked widespread community concern, prompting police to reassure over 90 multi-faith groups. Authorities stress there’s no broader public threat, but urge anyone with information to report it via the official online portal. Hawkes, who made no plea, remains in custody and is scheduled to return to court within eight days.
