Radical British preacher Anjem Choudary sentenced to life in prison for directing a terrorist group


Recommended Posts

Radical British preacher Anjem Choudary was sentenced Tuesday to life in prison for directing a terrorist group, days after he was convicted in Woolwich Crown Court of being a member of a banned organization — the radical Muslim group al-Muhajiroun, or ALM — and for drumming up support for the group.

 

Justice Mark Wall said Choudary, 57, was “front and center in running a terrorist organization” that “encouraged young men into radical activity."

ALM was outlawed by the British government in 2010 as a group involved in committing, preparing for or promoting terrorism.

 

Prosecutor Tom Little described Choudary as having a “warped and twisted mindset” and said he stepped in to lead ALM after Omar Bakri Muhammad, the group’s founder, was imprisoned in Lebanon between 2014 and March 2023.

 

Good!

Good, vile man.

 

No doubt he will be held in high esteem by certain factions in our prisons and will no doubt still be preaching his hate whilst inside.

Yes, there's been quite a bit of research done on radicalisation inside our prison estate.

I suppose one wants to be in some kind of gang, group etc for friendship and protection maybe?
