LONDON, Feb 12: A man, who was arrested here after his arrival from Pakistan, was charged under British anti-terrorism law on Saturday for planning an explosives attack, police said.

Salahuddin Amin, 29, was detained on Tuesday at London's Heathrow airport under the Terrorism Act of 2000, and was charged on Saturday with explosives offences.

He is alleged to have conspired with others, between Oct 1, 2003 and March 31, 2004, to explode a bomb, which was likely to endanger life and cause serious property damage.
