(BBC) A self-styled “Anglo Jihadi” accused of planning a terror attack was “not just an online fantasist,” prosecutors have told a jury.
Muslim convert Jordan Richardson, 21, of Oliver Close, Howden, East Yorkshire, is alleged to have been planning an “atrocity,” with possible targets including a shopping centre.
Jurors at Leeds Crown Court heard Richardson “regularly expressed a wish to kill Jews” and joked about going into a synagogue wearing a suicide vest.
Richardson denies preparing for acts of terrorism, the collection of information likely to be useful to a person committing or preparing an act of terrorism and distributing terrorist publications.
