The British authorities revealed the names of two of the authors of the London attack


One of them is a British citizen and a familiar face among the intelligence services.


The second terrorist is also a British citizen, but with Moroccan or Libyan origins.


Currently, the investigators are checking the identity of the third individual involved in the horrific attack that killed seven and so far, the first 12 suspects were released.


Khuram Shazad Butt was 27 years old and he lived in London in the Barking district.


The young man was born in Pakistan and his parents migrated in UK as asylum seekers when Khuram was just a child.


Khuram studied management and he was working in a fast-food joint.


The man was also married and had two children.


The terrorist appeared last year in a documentary broadcasted by Britain’s Channel 4 relate to the jihadists who live in UK.


In one of the pictures, Khuram was carrying a flag of the Islamic State while he was in the company of a group of Islamic preachers.


At one point, one of his friends became concerned about his obsession with radical Islam and his weird attempt to convince minors to convert by offering them candies in the park.


The second attacker is Rachid Redouane.


Rachid was 30 years old and lived in the same neighborhood.


According to the British press, he also had an Irish identity document, probably used to hide from the British authorities that he had traveled to Syria for so many times.


Meanwhile, the first victim whose identity was made public shortly after the incident is Christine Archibald, a 30-year-old Canadian.


She worked as a social worker before traveling to UK to join her fiancé.
