A convicted terrorist has been found guilty of breaching a notification order following an investigation by Counter Terrorism Policing South East (CTPSE).
Yesterday, at the Central Criminal Court, Iftikar Ali, of Totteridge Drive, High Wycombe was found guilty of four breaches of a Part 4 Terrorist Notification Order, under Section 54 of the Counter Terrorism Act 2008.
The 25-year-old had been arrested on 21 June 2022 and was subsequently charged on 26 September 2022.
Ali failed to notify police of financial information, namely a cryptocurrency account and two email addresses which were the conditions of his notification order.
Detective Chief Superintendent Olly Wright, Head of CTPSE, said: “Iftikar Ali was obliged to report these details, which he failed to do.
“In order to protect the public, many terrorism offenders have strict restrictions placed on them when they are released into the community.
“This case is a prime example of the work that CT Policing undertakes to manage convicted terrorists and other terrorism risk offenders, by proactively identifying and investigating breaches of court orders.
“Communities defeat terrorism, and information from the public is vital to counter terrorism investigations. If you see or hear something unusual or suspicious, and think someone may be engaging in or being drawn into terrorist activity, trust your instincts and act by reporting it in confidence at gov.uk/ACT. You may well be saving lives as a result.”
