“Sentencing, Judge Charles Wide QC told Ali he had made a ‘really determined attempt’ to evade justice. He said: ‘It is absolutely clear you are an extremist and you do support terrorism.'” Good thing he was released early. Maybe he can get a job in the Cameron government.
“Extremist released: 31 months jail for terror offences… out after 11 months,” by Patrick Williams, Daily Star, August 2, 2015 (thanks to Lookmann):
…Islamic extremist Afsor Ali, 28, was jailed in August last year after he was found guilty of three counts of possessing terrorist material.
But following a Daily Star Sunday investigation we can report the radical has been granted parole and is back on the streets – just 11 months after he was sent down.
Our exclusive pictures show Ali – who had a stash of al-Qaeda documents including bomb-making plans – mixing with unsuspecting members of the public during a Tube journey last week.
The fanatic, raised in Bethnal Green, east London, is living in a bail hostel in west London where he is believed to be subject to strict licence conditions.
Ali, a former disciple of hate clerics Anjem Choudary and Omar Bakri Muhammad, took part in a 2010 demonstration in which a group of extremists burned giant replica poppies on Remembrance Day.
In an interview on the day he raged: “We do not respect the poppy, we do not respect the British war dead and we do not respect the police.
“The British soldiers are the real murderers here.”
He was captured on video telling viewers not to attend the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s wedding in April 2011.
Under the alias Abu Assadullah, Ali can be heard warning there is a “high possibility of an attack” at the “royal wedding”.
In the footage, posted on YouTube, he also tells viewers the British public have “no one to blame except themselves” because they failed to condemn the Government.
During his trial, jurors were told Ali was first arrested in December 2011 when he took part in a protest outside the US embassy against drone attacks in Pakistan alongside members of the banned group Muslims Against Crusades.
He was released without charge, but during the investigation an MP3 player was seized and a laptop and hard drive taken from his home.
It was discovered that Ali kept terror manuals on his MP3 player and owned a copy of the al-Qaeda magazine Inspire with a guide to making bombs and firing an AK-47.
The magazine also branded the 9/11 atrocity “an historic event”.
Ali, a former Transport For London worker, also admitted possessing a stolen passport after he tried to flee on the Eurostar to Paris in March 2014 but was spotted by French officials.
He pleaded guilty to a further bail offence after he failed to attend court in February 2014.
He was given a 16-month jail sentence for the passport offence and an eight-month term for skipping bail, to run concurrently, as well as a further 15 months for having terrorist material.
Sentencing, Judge Charles Wide QC told Ali he had made a “really determined attempt” to evade justice.
He said: “It is absolutely clear you are an extremist and you do support terrorism….
mortimer says
Afsor Ali is a dangerous loose-cannon. No one knows what he will do next.
His statements give cause for alarm: “We do not respect the poppy, we do not respect the British war dead and we do not respect the police. The British soldiers are the real murderers here. (There is a) high possibility of an attack at the royal wedding.” He is advocating rebellion…sedition upon religious grounds. He is an Islamic supremacists.
Though he is one of the 15% of Muslims who support terrorism, he is one of the few who are outspoken about it. Most remain silent. However, one in a thousand jihad supporters is an actual jihadist who acts out by preparing to conduct jihad.
Afsor Ali is a ticking time bomb.
Lia Wissing says
Why was he released? By whom? Where is he now?
Kenny says
In response to your question, this situation is not abnormal. Anyone sentenced to under 4 years is normally released at the halfway stage. That is, a 3 year sentence actually means 18 months in custody. If time was spent on remand, then that is subtracted from custodial time also.
This is probably the case with this savage. Either he was on remand for some months, or he was granted something called H D C that is on a tag electronic location device with a curfew. The latter is probably the case but he would have had to convince the H D C panel that he is not a risk to public safety.
Yes, hilarious isn’t it? But that’s the British injustice system for you!
When it comes to ‘extremism’, guilty unless proven Islamic.
Kenny says
PS if proven Islamic, the situation then reverts to ‘the motive remains unclear’.
Phobic-ist says
15%!!? You are kidding, right? Where did that figure come from? Just open your ears and eyes next time one of these stinking jihadists kills UK citizens and wait for the chorus of condemnation from the Muslim community…..oh, wait….
Charli Main says
A golden opportunity for David ben Ali Cameron to hire a new technical advisor on the finer points of the ” religion of peace”.

I can not feel sorry for Britton.
JIMJFOX says
BRITAIN, ignoramus!
Do you live in the “Untied Status of Umarica”???
Kenny says
You should, because it’s coming your way too.
Just look to Kerry and Obama, nuff said.
PS don’t be such an illiterate ignoramus either.
Champ says
I can see maybe Pakistan doing this, but the UK *should* know better …
A million “shoulds” to date, for the UK.
Alissa says
“In an interview on the day he raged: “We do not respect the poppy, we do not respect the British war dead and we do not respect the police.”
Then kick his sorry ass back to the filthy barbaric shit hole that his heart desires.
Why do we put up with this???
jayell says
“We do not respect the poppy, we do not respect the British war dead and we do not respect the police.”
You’re right to pick up on that one, Alissa, and he’s only one of many to peddle that kind of crap. There was the joker, just like this one, several years back who refused to stand up in court when told, and I believe even turned his back to the Judge. And another case where one of this sort had just been sent down for a number of years and a whole contingent of his friends/family in the public gallery went totally berserk and started to trash the courtroom. It’s just disrespect, disrespect, disrespect, all down the line, and the wearing of the islamic clothes, burkhas and full face coverings in public is exactly the same thing. It’s the behaviour of obnoxious, spolit,self-centred brats who haven’t an ounce of civility in their disgusting bodies. They’re simply not fit for anything even vaguely resembling polite society.
The only thing for as long as we have to tolerate them here, I’m afraid, is to show total disrespect back, in fact to show disrespect from the word ‘go’, since apparently that’s their game. It seems that being ‘nice’ to these people has been totally counterproductive since they are clearly inherently evil, malicious and totally uncivilised and simply see courteous, deferential behaviour as ‘weakness’ and carte blanche to behave in the most repulsive way imaginable. And you’re right, Alissa, they’ve had long enough to learn the ropes about life in the West, and theyve failed miserably. So, with all due consideration for all concerned, the only way for them is ‘out’.

Pretty much. If they’re taught that they need to be aggressive with non-muslims, and that allah will help them, and they see non-muslims bending over backwards as not to offend them, then they’re not going to think “these people are being nice, maybe I should try being nice back”, they’re going to see it as evidence that they way they act is righteous and that they need to crank it up to 11.
jayell says
All makes sense.
Linda Rivera says
Ruling elites much prefer that filthy Muslim terrorist savages remain in the UK so that they can carry out terror attacks on our people.
Most likely, every single one of these filth are on full benefits living as parasites. The filth.
Paul says
Our government won’t do a damn thing about the threat we face.
I think it just might have something to do with the money they get
from the oil rich Arab states. I think there just may be a link there
somewhere. If these savages bomb a load of innocent civilians in
a shopping centre, what’s that to the cabinet members who live
in their mansions and nice estates? The only inconvenience will
be in having to interrupt a holiday “The attacks that took place in
(place name) on (date) have nothing at all to do with Islam. Islam
is a religion of peace”.

That is not even a slap on the wrist.
The UK is beyond being repaired at this point. Sorry guys.

That was said in 1940 too
Wellington says
The UK has invited the beast into its midst because of profound ignorance of the spiritual fascism which is Islam, and no one at the top——-not the Queen, not the PM, certainly not those at the BBC or in British academia——have an effing clue what to do about it. Indeed, the British royal family on down continue to double down, to insist against all evidence that Islam is not the problem when it is crystal clear that Islam is EXACTLY the problem.
Well, as Spengler, Durant and Toynbee observed, you know a civilization is in decline when the best no longer lead but follow. Or, as Yeats astutely opined (and by way of confirming this hypothesis), if the best lack all conviction (which they do in Britain and throughout the West), and the worst are full of passionate intensity (and full of something else I would argue), things are not looking optimal, to say the least, for the preservation of the best which Western Civilization has produced, examples being musical theater, the art of the Italian Renaissance, fine beer, liberty and, last but not least, equality under the law, which Islam in its theological blueprint abhors.
Yes, Islam is an inveterate enemy of all these and much more of the “best of the West,” for which Islam has nothing but contempt because it is such an abominable religion, so self-absorbed is it In making all the world an Islamic world, which is to say a highly limited world. But then this should come as no surprise to anyone of knowledge that Muslims are a very self-absorbed people, and ones who function in total clueless mode, total unappreciative mode, total parasitic mode, being victims as they invariably are whenever they don’t get their way and all the while claiming credit for what others did.
In other words, Islam is the major religion for adults who refuse to grow up. After all, Mohammed never did, now did he, psychopath, narcissist and child molester that he was?
JIMJFOX says
Finely stated.

Indeed, Wellington! …great comment 🙂
Raghuram says
While they claim, Terror has no Religion, why is one particular relgion – Islam, involved in 99.99% of the Terror attacks & Crime against humanity, while Human rights claiming their Human rights, why are human rights activists opposing humanity … are these Terrorist’s really Humans … ?
terry bare says
We are living in an upside down world.
islam is the most destructive ideology in the history of mankind, and we are bending over and facilitating it’s totalitarianism.
Linda Rivera says
More evidence that wicked UK ruling elites are desperately eager for Muslims to perpetrate terror attacks on our people.
