Man admits plot to behead soldier
A man has pleaded guilty to a plot to kidnap and kill a Muslim soldier in the army by cutting off his head "like a pig", a court was told on Tuesday.
Parviz Khan, 37, pleaded guilty this month to a series of charges including the beheading plot, which was foiled by police and the MI5 security service a year ago.
Media had been barred from reporting Khan's plea until Tuesday when a trial of two other men opened in Leicester.

Security problems marred Diana's last days
A bodyguard protecting Princess Diana and her lover Dodi al-Fayed said on Tuesday the couple's last days were marred by a string of security problems.
Kieran Wingfield said his requests for more manpower fell on deaf ears and he complained that Dodi kept security staff in the dark about what the ill-fated couple planned to do next.
Wingfield and fellow bodyguard Trevor Rees worked up to 18 hours a day trying to protect the couple on a yachting holiday in the South of France and then in Paris where they died in a car crash along with chauffeur Henri Paul in August 1997.
