Suspected terrorists with links to Boko Haram charged with acid attack on 2 British teenagers

Two suspected terrorists with links to terror group Boko Haram have been charged with an acid attack on two British tourists, it has been claimed.
The two men, who have not been named, are alleged to have driven past 2 friends Katie Gee and Kirstie Trup while the duo were on holiday in Tanzania in August 2013 and poured acid on them as the terrorists drove past the girls on a moped .

Abdulrahman Kinana, a senior politician from the ruling party, said the Brits were attacked by members of the Uamsho or “Awakening” group who have now been charged.
He said:
"Assisted by investigators from the British police at New Scotland Yard and Interpol, the Tanzanian authorities later arrested for the crime members of Uamsho or “Awakening”, an Islamic terrorist group with known links to Boko Haram.
"They have now been charged in court.
"Uamsho has a history of targeting foreigners and even Muslim and Christian religious leaders who do not support their aim of tearing apart the union of Tanzania through terrorism and converting Zanzibar into an extremist state."
Katie and Kirstie, from north London, were both nearing the end of a month teaching English when they were both attacked with sulphuric acid.
