(BBC) A former postman has admitted to spreading terrorist information, on the first day of his trial.
Sajid Idris, 36, was sentenced to 21 months, suspended for two years, at Kingston Crown Court.
In July 2017, Idris, 36, from the Grangetown area of Cardiff, was charged with four counts of disseminating a terrorist publication online.
He was due to be prosecuted at a two-week trial, but on Monday he pleaded guilty to all counts.
Idris was described as a devotee of radical Islamist Omar Bakri Mohammed — who is banned from the UK — and had uploaded a number of his talks to YouTube channels, advocating terrorism and violence.
