June 16, 2011 15:34

Even as the Al Qaeda announced Al Zawahiri as their top boss after Osama's death, a report in the Sun reveals that Eton College and The Ritz hotel are on a hit-list of bomb targets drawn up by a ruthless al-Qaeda commander.

The plot details were found on the body of Fazul Abdullah Mohammed, the terror group's chief in East Africa, after he was shot dead.

Security chiefs held a top-level summit with Government ministers and anti-terror police yesterday after the discovery of the Al Qaeda plot.
