Richard Dart a Muslim convert was jailed by the judge in England as he was found to be involved in preparation of acts of terrorism. Richard Dart and his collaborators Jahangir Alom and Imran Mehmood were declared “Committed Fundamentalist” by the judge.
All three men were sent to jail, one of which is a former community support officer . A teacher’s son from Dorset Richard Dart and his allies Jahangir Alom and Imran Mehmood confessed their crime between July 2010 and July 2011, stating that they have been involved in activities that are directly related to terrorism. After the previous hearing last month all of three men were sentenced to jail by old bailey.
All three extremists were sentenced for different periods of time, Richard Dart was given six years in jail, while Jahangir Alom and Imran Mehmood were jailed for four years and six months, and nine years and nine months respectively. Mr. Justice Simon said to a television network that all of these men were given punishment because they were found to have extreme believes that ultimately resulted in the act of preparation of terrorism. He added that they were committed to doing the crime, and it will not be allowed at any level as they have already confessed that they were trying to act.
As the announcement came up to the seen by the judge, Dart and Mehmood were given extended sentences as it was not expected to have the duration of the sentence so long. When Dart was asked to stand up in front of the judge, when the judge was about to make an announcement of the sentence, Dart refused to stand up saying “ I don’t wish to stand up. I believe ruling and judging is only by Allah”.
Mr. Simon added that he is satisfied with the sentences that were given to all three men, as he called them “Committed Fundamentalist”. He added that they never ruled out the fact that they were not indulged in the criminal activity.
Mehmood was trying to arm himself with a bomb, Art and Alom went to Pakistan to get the basic training about the bombing and was later joined by Mehmood. The reported target of their plans was Wootton Bassett.
Later on, investigation by the police revealed that Dart and Alom were using text conversation in a word file in order to avoid any surveillance as they were mistaken that the deleted document cannot be retrieved from their laptop.
