(BBC) A mother who failed to inform police about her son’s links to a man planning a terror attack has been jailed for three years.
Biomedical scientist Nabeela Anjum, 49, of Upland Road, Roundhay, Leeds, was sentenced at Leeds Crown Court on Monday after being found guilty in May.
Jurors had seen messages proving she knew her teenage son, Sameer, was in contact with Al-Arfat Hassan, a drill rapper who admitted possessing chemicals for terrorist purposes.
James Dunkerley, the head of Counter Terrorism Policing North East, said the conviction showed “how important it is to report serious information to the police.”
