'Chemicals for teeth and verrucas', bomb plot trial told
Nicholas Roddis (27), who is accused of researching bomb-making materials at his local library, claimed he used hydrogen peroxide to try and add sparkle to his “yellow” teeth.
The convicted terrorist, who was released early from a jail term imposed after he planted a hoax bomb on a bus while wearing a false beard, said it had produced a “bubbling sensation” in his mouth, but was otherwise similarly ineffective.
