(BBC) A man has been found guilty of trying to make a bomb to be used in a driverless car.
Farhad Salah was convicted at Sheffield Crown Court of preparing to commit acts of terrorism.
He “posed a very real risk to the safety of our communities,” counter-terrorism police said.
The jury failed to reach a verdict on his co-defendant, chip-shop owner Andy Star, who was charged with the same offence.
Jurors heard how Salah, 24, an Iraqi Kurd, posted on social media about using a driverless car in an attack.
Prosecutors told the trial how Salah and Mr Star, 32, were in the early stages of testing small improvised explosive devices when they were arrested in raids on their homes in a Sheffield community centre and a Chesterfield fish and chip shop in December 2017.
