A man from Surrey has been found guilty of terrorism offences including possessing explosive substances.

Asad Bhatti of Holland Close, Redhill was investigated by officers from Counter Terrorism Police after he took his computer in to a shop to be fixed.

 On further investigation, officers found bomb making equipment and other material relating to terrorism at premises relating to Bhatti.

Glen O’Dwyer, is from the computer shop where the laptop was taken.

 Bhatti will be sentenced at the Old Bailey on Tuesday 25 April. 

Tandridge District Council is taking steps to prosecute the occupants of the unauthorised encampment set up on a field off Tanhouse Road in Oxted.

Back in December several caravans moved onto the site, where drainage work and hard surfacing was soon installed.

The Council served several enforcement notices to prevent further development and for the occupants to leave.

Because no-one has yet left the site, the Council are taking steps to prosecute the occupants for not complying with the notices given to them.

A council-run hedge-planting scheme has been modified after the discovery of a colony of glow-worms in Norbury Park, near Dorking.

Surrey County Council said the changes were to benefit the species and enhance the declining habitat to provide a better chance of survival.

 A flock of sheep grazing close to the glow-worms were also moved to a nearby field to minimise disturbance.
