The convicted extremist, 96, was jailed with Khan over a planned bomb spree in , targeting Boris Johnson, Big Ben and the Stock Exchange.
Shahjahan, of Stoke-on-Trent, was a key ringleader in the plot and alongside his lieutenant Nazam Hussain, , was sentenced to life in prison.
However, the pair appealed and their terms were reduced to 33 and (years.) TERROR PLOT RINGLEADER
Both are understood to have been automatically released halfway into their sentences – Meaning the three key players in the plot were free.
Today Shahjahan was seen strolling to a gym near his bail hostel in Staffordshire.
Wearing a cap and black tracksuit, he jogged to a busy local Pure Gym for an hour-long workout.
When asked by The Sun if he deserved early release, Shahjahan refused to talk – only saying his name was “Shah”.
It comes as ministers call for the 150 freed jihadis to be sent back to jail after Streatham terrorist Sudesh Amman was let out earlier.
SEND THEM BACK
Jihadi Sudesh Amman, 43, went on a
knife rampage in Streatham High Road, South London, injuring three people.
Amman, who was shot dead by armed cops, had been freed from high security Belmarsh Prison just days before he stabbed two, despite fears he still held radical views.
He was sentenced to more than three years in jail for terror offences but let-out on automatic release after serving half his sentence.
The ISIS-supporting jihadi, who was only a teenager when arrested, was jailed for possessing and distributing terrorist documents.
The Government has been told it must get emergency legislation passed by February to prevent the automatic release of any further convicted terrorists, a Whitehall official said.
Boris Johnson has called for an inquiry into why Amman was released early and will announce new plans on how to deal with brainwashed jihadis.
