THE London Bridge terrorist was pictured laughing as he shared a poem thanking the workers who helped rehabilitate him that he would later kill, it has emerged.

Usman Khan, 28, was shot dead by police after he went on a rampage in a fake suicide vest and stabbed a man and a woman to death, putting another three in hospital on Friday.

He wrote a poem saying he wanted to 'enter the coldest of hearts'

London Bridge attacker Usman Khan, 28, was convicted in 2012 for terrorism offences

Khan had been helped by Learning Together after he was released from prison in December last year.

And he was used as a poster boy by the programme after he thanked them for helping him get a computer he could use without breaching his bail conditions.

The programme shared Khan's message of thanks, which was written alongside a photo of the ex-convict appearing to laugh,

Writing in a poem, he said: "I write so I can enter the coldest of hearts, I write so I can speak to those locked off from the world engulfed in the blinding absence of sight."

The five lines poem then ended: "I write so I can express what I feel is right."

In the report, the organisation published the Thank You letter Khan wrote them for the laptop saying they have a "special place" in his heart.

It reads: "I typed these reflections on the chromebook I received and I am truly grateful to be able to express myself through it.

"I cannot send enough thanks to the entire Learning Together team and all those who continue to support this wonderful community."

The images only show the ex-convict from the back, but it is understood to be Khan.

Khan had been at a Learning Together event at Fishmongers' Hall when he murdered Cambridge University graduate Saskia Jones, 23, and 25-year-old Jack Merritt.

'SPECIAL PLACE'

Questions have since arisen over just why Khan hadn't needed to face the Parole Board before he was released from prison.

Khan, from Staffordshire, had been convicted in 2012 for terror offences.

He was part of a nine-man group who plotted to bomb the London Stock Exchange and set up a terrorist training camp in Pakistan-controlled Kashmir.

The men were inspired by al-Qaeda and had been under surveillance by MI5.

It is understood Khan was taught by Islam4UK's leader Anjem Choudary, a hate preacher who was freed in 2018.

Mr Justice Wilkie, the judge in the case, said the group's actions showed a "serious, long-term venture into terrorism" and could have resulted atrocities across the UK.

The judge branded Khan and two plotters as "the more serious jihadists" of the group.

He was banned from entering London but had a one-day exemption to attend the ex-convict event organised, it emerged last night.

The killer "hoodwinked" authorities by travelling to the prisoner rehabilitation conference at Fishmongers' Hall where he launched his horror rampage on Friday.
