London Bridge attacker Usman Khan once brazenly claimed, “I ain’t no terrorist” in an interview following a police raid of his house.

Khan was just 17 when BBC cameras caught him after the 2008 anti-terror raid — just over a decade before he would kill two in a stabbing rampage in London that would end with him shot dead by cops.

“I’ve been born and bred in England, in Stoke-On-Trent, in Cobridge, and all the community knows me,” Khan told the BBC, just four years before he was jailed for a jihadist plot to blow up London landmarks.

“And they will know, if you ask them, they will know like these labels what they’re putting on us — like terrorist, this, that — they will know I ain’t no terrorist,” he blatantly lied to the camera.

Khan, 28, had been released early from his 2012 terrorism conviction — masquerading as a reformed jihadist in a rehabilitation program — when he struck in the heart of London Friday afternoon while wearing a fake suicide bomb vest.

Khan killed Jack Merritt, 25, and Saskia Jones, 23, and injured others before he was tackled by onlookers and finally shot dead by cops.
