A terrorist who bragged about helping Osama bin Laden mastermind the 9/11 attacks could be freed from a UK prison within days — despite officials declaring him a “risk to national security.”

Haroon Aswat — who previously set up an al-Qaeda training camp in the US —  is set to be released from a secure psychiatric hospital unit where he’s currently locked up in the UK after he completes mental health treatment, The Sun reported.

Haroon Rashid Aswat, 31, who is originally from the West of Yorkshire is believed to have been in close contact with the four suicide bombers in the days before the attacks on three Tube trains and a bus

The twisted terrorist will be cut loose without a full risk assessment because of a legal loophole under the country’s Mental Health Act — a decision that’s sparked widespread fury.

“This despicable man was behind one of the most deadly attacks in modern history. He should never experience freedom again,” the country’s shadow justice secretary, Robert Jenrick, said.

In 2015, Aswat — a known associate of bin Laden — was sentenced to 20 years in a US prison after he admitted to trying to start an al-Qaeda training camp in Oregon.

While locked up in the US, he apparently confessed to helping to plot the despicable Sept. 11 attacks that killed thousands in New York as well as the 2005 bombings in the UK that left 52 people dead.

“In March 2017 the defendant stated, ‘if you think I am a terrorist, I don’t shy away from my responsibility’ and also stated he was a mastermind behind the 9/11 attacks and a 2005 terrorist attack in the UK,” the court papers stated.

He was deported back to the UK in 2022 after being visited in prison by a British psychiatrist.

Despite British terror police assessing Aswat and warning that he continues to be a security risk, a judge recently determined his release was expected in the “relatively near future” under the country’s mental health laws.

Still, Aswat will only be subjected to a notification order upon his release — meaning he’ll just have to register his address and notify cops of any future travel plans.
