MP ATTACKER IN PAROLE BID

THE jihadist who stabbed Labour minister Stephen Timms is making a fresh bid for freedom.

Roshonara Choudhry had been radicalised when she was a university student, and attempted to murder her local MP in 2010.

She was jailed for life at the Old Bailey but has now passed the minimum 15-year sentence imposed.

Now 36, her latest application for parole is her second and she could be walking the streets in months.

Last night terrorism experts said she still poses a risk.

Colonel Richard Kemp, the Army's former chief in Afghanistan, told us: "This individual is highly dangerous.

"I am seriously concerned she has not changed her ways.

"She manipulated those t around her to the point she I was able to launch such a horrendous attack.

"I fear she can never be reformed properly."
