Terror teacher Umar Haque searched online for transsexual prostitutes
Haque, 25, listed gay clubs among his 30 potential terror targets, but his sleazy online activity emerged after his arrest last May
TERROR teacher Umar Haque searched online for transsexual prostitutes even though he listed gay clubs among 30 targets.
The 25-year-old, who planned the blitz with a death squad of brainwashed boys, also blasted “mass fornication and illicit behaviour’’ in police questioning.
Religious studies teacher Haque’s sleazy online activity emerged after his arrest last May — when he was shocked to be quizzed over the computer searches.
A source said: “He was shaken to the core by the questions around transsexual prostitutes.
“It appears to show him as a complete hypocrite.’’
Haque was convicted at the Old Bailey on Friday of preparing terror attacks, and faces sentencing later this month.
Police believe he was inspired to carry out an atrocity by the Westminster Bridge attack.
He came into contact with more than 100 children, showing some IS propaganda videos. Several have needed to be deradicalised.
His list of potential targets, including Tower Bridge and Heathrow, were written in an orange exercise book.
Haque told police that “gay clubs, definitely” were also on his list.
He said: “I don’t like Britain,” and complained of “mass fornication, mass illicit behaviour”.

Police asked Haque why he had shown kids at the Ripple Road mosque in Barking, East London, graphic videos and got them to enact scenarios from the Westminster attack.
He said: “It’s better than the nonsense you guys are teaching children.”
The Sun can reveal an MI5 listening device also picked up Haque talking about marrying girls aged 15 or 16.
