Four British nationals -- Mohammed Chowdhury, Shah Rahman, Gurukanth Desai and Abdul Miah -- have pleaded guilty to engaging in conduct in preparation for acts of terrorism, reports the BBC. They were arrested in December 2010.

The nine will be sentenced next week.

The LSE plotters intended to send five mail bombs in the run-up to Christmas last year and even discussed launching a "Mumbai-style" atrocity, says BBC.
