Jury shown dramatic footage of 7/7 bombings

LONDON (Reuters) - The jury at the trial of three Britons accused of plotting with the four men who carried out the London bombings of July 7, 2005 were shown dramatic and previously unseen CCTV footage of the attacks.

Mohammad Sidique Khan, Shehzad Tanweer, Jermaine Lindsay and Hasib Hussain killed 52 people bombers and injured hundreds more in the in co-ordinated morning rush hour attacks on three underground trains and a bus.

On Friday, a jury at Kingston Crown Court failed to reach a verdict in the trial of Mohammed Shakil, Sadeer Saleem and Waheed Ali who were accused of conspiring to cause explosions.

During the trial, the jury was shown footage of the moments two of the bombings occurred, an alleged scouting mission by three of the bombers throughout London's transport network nine days before the attacks and photographs of the extensive damage the blasts caused.

In one example, taken from closed circuit television cameras at the British Medical Association building, the moments as Hussain detonated a bomb on the No. 30 bus in Tavistock Square, central London was shown.

The footage later showed terrified people cower as it exploded just before 10 a.m., killing Hussain and 13 others. In another, CCTV on the bus in front showed panicked people jumping out of their seats as the bus explodes.

Another film showed the moments as Tanweer detonated his bomb on an eastbound Circle Line train that killed the bomber and seven commuters.

The packed train approaches the platform at Liverpool St where commuters enter then, about 40 seconds later as the train approaches Aldgate, the platform fills with smoke and dust after Tanweer's bomb exploded.
