Three students have appeared in court in connection with the failed July 21 London bombings.

Shadi Abdel Gadir, 22, Omar Nagmeloin Almagboul, 20, both of Fairways flats in Dyke Road, Brighton, and Mohamed Kabashi, 23, of Mary Magdelene Road, Brighton, appeared before Bow Street Magistrates in London yesterday via videolink.

All three are charged with failing to disclose information about the attacks and assisting failed Shepherd's Bush attacker Hussain Osman in evading arrest.

Gadir and Almagboul were refused bail and remanded in custody to appear before the Old Bailey on November 17.

Almagboul's solicitor Michael Cole told the court: "He will be vehemently denying these charges. It will be not guilty all down the line."

Many of Almagboul's family, including his younger sister and his father, a businessman, were in court for the brief hearing.

Almagboul and Gadir were students at the University of Brighton but left before finishing their courses.

Gadir was studying for a foundation course but left in April while Almagboul was studying electrical engineering but quit in March.

No bail application was made for Kabashi who was also remanded in custody until November 17.

The three were arrested with two other men and a woman who have been released without charge. They were at Fairways flats on July 31 when Sussex and Metropolitan Police swooped.

Mulumebet Girma, Kabashi's girlfriend and Osman's sister-in-law, also appeared via videolink yesterday charged with failing to disclose information about the attacks. Mulumebet, 21, of Dorset Road, Stockwell, recently gained a 2:1 degree from the University of Brighton but missed her graduation ceremony because she was in police custody. Her lawyer, Mr Giret, described her as a "model citizen".

Five other men and a woman, all from London, also appeared in court charged with failing to disclose information about the attacks. All were remanded in custody.

Ibrahim Muktar Said, who is alleged to have tried to blow up a bus in Hackney, Yasin Omar, accused of trying to detonate a device on a tube train near Warren Street, and Ramzi Mohamed, accused of trying to blow up a tube train near Oval station, were remanded in custody earlier this week to reappear before the Old Bailey on November 14.

Each has been charged with attempted murder, conspiracy to murder, conspiracy to endanger life by using explosives and making or possessing explosives with intent to endanger life.

A fourth man, Manfo Kwaku Asiedu, has been charged with conspiracy to murder and conspiracy to endanger life by using explosives.
