(AAP) Jailed after planning a Syria trip to fight for ISIS and thrown back behind bars for owning a prohibited firearm, a Sydney man will now be watched carefully after release.
On Friday, the NSW Supreme Court made an extended supervision order requiring Moudasser Taleb be monitored for two years after walking free from Silverwater prison on December 9.
In granting this order, Justice Gina Yehia noted the 27-year-old had a history of non-compliance with the court’s demands, including obtaining a double-barrelled shotgun in violation of a firearms prohibition order.
She also noted two psychologists’ reports which suggested there remained a risk he would fall back into violent extremism.
