(BBC) Terror offenders who were due to be released from prison in the next two months are being told they will not be let out under planned new laws.
Earlier this week, the government said that new terror legislation to end automatic early release will apply to current as well as future offenders.
Lawyer Simon Creighton said one client who was due to be freed in March had been told his release date has changed.
Mr Creighton said a number of offenders were likely to challenge the new laws.
“I’d imagine it’s inevitable that it will go [to] the Supreme Court,” he said.
