LONDON—An Iraqi asylum-seeker was jailed for 34 years on Friday, March 23 for trying to set off a homemade bomb on a rush-hour London commuter train in a botched attack that injured 30 people last year.
Ahmed Hassan was found guilty last week of trying to murder passengers on an underground train heading to central London on Sept. 15. Police said it was only luck that his device, packed with shrapnel, did not properly detonate.
