Two men remanded in custody over UK bombings
Two men charged in connection with suspected Real IRA bomb attacks in London and Birmingham last year have been remanded in custody.
James Patrick McCormack, 33, and Aiden Patrick Hulme, 25, appeared before Belmarsh Magistrate's Court in London on Thursday February 14 amid tight security.
The pair were both remanded in custody until February 21 when they will appear at the Central Criminal Court for a plea and directions hearing. No application for bail was made.
District Judge Timothy Workman made an order under the Contempt of Court Act banning publication of any photograph, drawing or image which might identify the defendants.
Police in Northern Ireland arrested both men last week at the request of the Anti-Terrorist Squad.
On March 3, 2001 a car exploded outside BBC Television Centre in Shepherd's Bush, west London, slightly injuring an Underground worker.
Five months later, on August 3, another car blew up in a street in Ealing, west London, injuring several people.
On November 3 last year there was another car bomb near the Bull Ring in Birmingham, but it did not detonate properly.
