LONDON: A terror suspect accused of murdering former UK MP David Amess will stand trial on March 21.
Ali Harbi Ali, 26, is accused of stabbing Amess to death during a constituency meeting in Essex last year on Oct. 15.
Amess died from multiple stab wounds.
Ali is also accused of preparing terrorist acts between May and September last year.
Prosecutor Tom Little said: “As far as the Crown is concerned we are ready for the trial, having met the ambitious timetable on time.
“As far as we are concerned, subject to discussions with the defense, we do not understand there being any issues as to admissibility of evidence in the case.”
Ali pleaded not guilty to murder and preparing acts of terrorism in December last year.
