The arrest came after West Midlands Police detained 26-year-old Azeem Hussain as he disembarked a flight into the country last month. 

The pair, both from Walsall, have now been charged with attempted murder and firearms offences. Azeem Hussain was remanded to appear before Birmingham Crown Court today (Friday, May 10) and Jamal Hussain on May 31.
