(Breitbart) A Danish court has sentenced 29-year-old Adam Touhou to six years in prison and to be stripped of his citizenship followed by deportation for recruiting for the Islamic State terror group.
Touhou began speaking with Hafed Matoussi on Facebook in 2013 about the Islamic State, eventually urging the now 30-year-old to travel to Syria to join the terror group.
The Copenhagen District Court decided on Friday to sentence Touhou to six years in prison, as well as stripping him of his citizenship and permanently expelling him from Denmark. Touhou’s lawyer has already appealed the verdict.
According to a report from the Danish newspaper Berlingske, Matoussi had been sentenced to three years in 2018 for his connections to the Islamic State. He was later deported, despite the fact Matoussi had been born in Denmark.
