A man has admitted making threats to kill Prince Harry, Scotland Yard has confirmed.
Ashraf Islam, 30, of no fixed address, pleaded guilty to the offence at Uxbridge Magistrates' Court on May 25 and is being held in custody awaiting sentencing.
He was arrested after attending Hounslow police station in west London on May 23 - just one day after the murder of soldier Lee Rigby in Woolwich.
The 28-year-old prince is a captain in the Army Air Corps and has served twice in Afghanistan.
Officers from the Metropolitan Police's Counter Terrorism Command investigated the case, but no terror charges were brought against Islam, a spokesman for Scotland Yard said.
