The wife of a man who attempted to bomb a Tube train is facing jail for failing to go to police with his plan.

The Old Baily heard Yeshi Girma of Stockwell, South London, knew of her husband Hussain Osman's plan to set off a bomb at Shepard's Bush on 21 July 2005. Detectives say Girma assisted with the escape plan and removed and destroyed evidence from the couple's South London home. Girma's brother, sister and boyfriend will also be sentenced as accomplices of the attack. Her husband and three other men were jailed for life after the failed attacks.
