Exclusive - The convicted terrorists living on our streets

In the very first episode of The Crime Agents, investigative journalist Andy Hughes reveals exclusively how hundreds of convicted terrorists have been released from UK jails over the past two decades, and are now living among us, many of whom continue to refuse deradicalisation treatment.

His co-host on the Crime Agents is the former Head of Counter Terrorism for the Metropolitan Police, Neil Basu. In this episode Neil explains how law enforcement go about catching terrorists, how terror plots are thwarted, and why there are now so many convicted terrorists no longer in jail.
