Bradford man jailed for terrorism offences

    A man from Bradford has been jailed on terrorism offences.

    Asim Majid, 30, of Cranbourne Road, Bradford, was jailed at Leeds Crown Court for possessing terrorist videos and instruction publications that he shared online.

    The court heard how one video showed two men demonstrating on a live prisoner how to kill someone with a knife.

    Majid was convicted of two counts of possessing documents likely to be useful to a person committing or preparing an act of terrorism, and eight counts of disseminating terrorist publications.

    He was also found guilty of a single charge of transferring money knowing that it may be used for terrorism and sentenced to 12 years in prison.
