UK: Asim Kausar Jailed Over Ricin Recipe Find
27th January 2012
Asim Kausar, 25, from Bolton, kept the information on a computer pen drive.
The material only came to light after Kausar’s family suffered a burglary and the memory stick was handed in to police.
Kausar pleaded guilty to four charges under the Terrorism Act at Manchester Crown Court.
The memory stick contained details about ricin, assassination and torture techniques, and how to construct improvised explosive devices (IEDs).
Must be one o’ them IRA terrorists. Asim Kausar sure sounds like an Irish name, don’t it?
His mobile phone was also seized which contained a photograph of Kausar posing with an AK rifle – believed to have been taken in Pakistan.
The court was also told about a letter written by Kausar in which he said: “I want to fight jihad for Allah”.
The letter also asked “whether he would be able to fight and whether his martyrdom would be accepted”.
That’s some fine Religion o’ Peace you got there, Mohammed.
