(AP) A U.S. appeals court on Tuesday upheld the conviction and life prison sentence given to a London imam for supporting terrorism.
The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said there was overwhelming evidence against Mustafa Kamel Mustafa, 60.
The court also ruled that Mustafa’s 2012 extradition to the U.S. from England didn’t come with conditions preventing his incarceration at the Supermax prison in Florence, Colorado.
Mustafa is missing both hands. His lawyers said he belongs at a prison better suited to people with disabilities.
A lawyer for Mustafa did not respond to a request for comment Tuesday.
