-

AN Islamic State supporter who built a bomb to attack a rail line is to have further psychiatri­c testing before he is sentenced.

Zahid Hussain, 29, loaded his pressure cooker device with shrapnel and wired it using fairy lights.

He was seen on CCTV climbing down a drain yards from the West Coast Main Line in Birmingham.

Hussain, of Alum Rock, convicted of preparing a terrorism act, will be sentenced in October.
