5 Years Empty 5 Years

A student has been jailed for nearly five years for downloading a video on how to make a shrapnel-laden suicide vest, just three years after being put on the radar of the Government's anti-terror programme.

'Obsessional' Muslim convert Liam Fenn, from Wigan, Greater Manchester, was referred to Prevent following comments he made at his sixth form college to a youth mentor in March 2017.

The 21-year-old, who is autistic, went on to tell police officers he had sent emails to banned UK-based terror group Al Muhajiroun seeking advice on 'how best to conduct jihad' and asking whether he should travel to Medina to study or to Syria to fight.
