13 Nov 2023 Jahr - Davis Arrested on Terrorism Charges

Beschreibung:

A British man who spent two years with Islamic State in Syria and knew the British militant dubbed Jihadi John, has been jailed for carrying a weapon for terrorist purposes.

Aine Davis was also sentenced at the Old Bailey for fundraising after he tried to get his wife to send him 20,000 euros (£17,460).

Intelligence services once believed that Davis was part of the "IS Beatles" who tortured and killed hostages.

Davis was jailed for eight years.

The sentence was made up of five-and-half-years for the firearms charge, and two-and-a-half-years for two fundraising charges - all of which are offences under the Terrorism Act.
