(AP) Radical British preacher Anjem Choudary pleaded not guilty Monday in a London courtroom to two terrorism-related charges.
Choudary, 57, pleaded not guilty to membership in a banned organization, the radical Muslim group al-Muhajiroun, and addressing meetings to encourage support for the group.
The British government outlawed al-Muhajiroun in 2010 as a group involved in committing, preparing for or promoting terrorism.
The group has since operated under many names, including the Islamic Thinkers Society, which Choudary has spoken to, prosecutors said.
