Man who promoted ‘violent jihad’ online jailed

(BBC) A 22-year-old man who promoted “violent jihad” by sharing online content has been jailed.

A mobile phone found at Cameron Gloria De Almeida’s home in Leeds linked him to a cloud-based storage account he had used “to share electronic libraries of terrorist publications,” counter-terrorism police said.

At Leeds Crown Court in July, he admitted five counts of disseminating terrorist publications and one charge of conspiracy to commit robbery.

At the same court on Tuesday, he was sentenced to four years in jail with an additional year on extended licence.

Working with West Yorkshire Police, Counter Terrorism Policing North East (CTPNE) said De Almeida, of Garnet Place, Beeston, was arrested on 1 March.
