Six Men Jailed in UK for Supporting Terror

Six men convicted of supporting terrorism through speeches at a London mosque have been handed jail terms.

Among them is Muslim preacher Abu Izzadeen, who was sentenced to four-and-a-half years in prison.

The speeches, on 9 November 2004, came as US and British forces fought fierce battles in Falluja, Iraq.

The sentencing was delayed after one of the guilty men, who had jumped bail for 10 days, turned himself in. [...]

The defendants were all members of an extreme Islamist group known as Al-Muhajiroun, which has since been banned.
