London: The Police in UK have released new video of the bombers who attacked London's transport network on July 7, 2005.

The London Metropolitan police said one of the new CCTV video shows a man identified as one of the bombers, Shezhad Tanweer, entering Woodhall Services on the M1 motorway and buying snacks on the morning of the attacks.

The footage also showed a man identified as Hasib Hussain, another of the bombers, entering a McDonalds restaurant on Euston Road in London and leaving a short time later.

Hussain later detonated his bomb on a bus in Tavistock Square.

Tanweer and the other two bombers - Mohammad Sidique Khan and Jermaine Lindsay - set off their devices on the underground train network.

The Press Association won a three-year three-year freedom of information battle to have the pictures released. Scotland Yard's objections that the footage could hamper its investigations were dismissed last month by the Information Commissioner. Scotland Yard accepted the ruling but delayed the video's release until the end of a trial of three men accused of helping to plot the 2005 attacks.

Waheed Ali, Mohammed Shakil and Sadeer Saleem were cleared on Tuesday of playing any role in the bombings.

Ali and Shakil were found guilty by a jury of conspiracy to attend a "terrorist" training camp, and were each sentenced on Wednesday to seven years in prison.
