(BBC) A teenage Muslim convert who was detained for plotting an attack on the Isle of Wight Festival has been spared an increased sentence after assaulting detention staff.
At the time, the 16-year-old, who cannot be named because of his age, had been charged under the Terrorism Act.
While remanded in custody, he attacked staff and emergency workers.
After pleading guilty, he was given a 12-month detention and training order (DTO) to run alongside his sentence.
He was sentenced earlier this month to seven years in detention after jurors at Kingston Crown Court found him guilty of terrorism offences, according to Counter Terrorism Policing South East (CTPSE).
