An inadequate article, in that it doesn't say anything about with what groups they were affiliated. Still, it vividly demonstrates that the threat to Western societies has not dissipated. From [1] AP, :

LONDON, England (AP) -- Three terror suspects have pleaded innocent to charges that they conspired to possess a radioactive substance and entered into funding arrangements linked to terrorism.

Roque Flaviano Fernandes, 43, Dominic Agnello Martins, 44, and Abdurahman Kanyare all denied that they conspired to possess a "radioactive mercury-based substance" for terrorist purposes between July 1 and September 25, 2004.

The three men appeared at the Old Bailey criminal court by video-link from Belmarsh high-security prison in the southeast of the capital.

They all denied another two charges each of "conspiracy to enter into a funding arrangement for purposes of terrorism" between July 1 and Sept. 25.
