The 57-year-old is said to have taken on a 'caretaker role' directing and encouraging support for banned terrorist organisation Al-Muhajiroun (ALM) just months after his licence conditions ended.
Radical preacher Anjem Choudary went on trial yesterday accused of 'directing an international terrorist organisation' after being released from jail for supporting Islamic State.
Following his release from prison in 2018, Choudary was initially subject to licence conditions preventing him from preaching. The 57-year-old is said to have taken on a 'caretaker role' directing and encouraging support for banned terrorist organisation Al-Muhajiroun In 2022 Choudary started 'regularly and passionately lecturing' a branch of ALM in New York, which had changed its name to Islamic Thinkers Society because terrorist organisations 'lurk in the shadows seeking to avoid detection, seeking to avoid investigation and prosecution', Mr Little said.
'Anjem Choudary did much of that, we say, whilst the spiritual leader of ALM was incarcerated in prison in the Lebanon.He said: 'Anjem Choudary never gave up. He bided his time.' Choudary's conviction 'undoubtedly made him more cautious in who he would speak openly to.
