A wannabe Islamic terrorist, who breached strict court orders after his prison release, is back behind bars.
Trevor Mulindwa, 25, was jailed in 2015 for planning to travel to Somalia and join Al-Shabaab.
He was released in 2018 after serving half a six-year sentence and has to comply with a 15-year Counter Terrorism Act notification order.
Living in south-west London Mulindwa was obliged to notify police if he ever bought a motor vehicle.
On November 13, last year policeidentified he was the owner of a moped he had not informed them he had.
That same day they seized the vehicle and the next day they arrested Mulindwa at his home address, from which they recovered the keys for the moped.
Police searched the vehicle and found an internet-enabled smart phone locked in the top box.
By having this phone Mulindwa was also in breach of his probation license.
He was immediately recalled to prison.
Mulindwa was charged with breach of a Part 4 Counter Terrorism Act 2008 notification requirement.
Mulindwa appeared at Westminster Magistrates’ Court where he pleaded guilty to the offence.
He was sentenced to eight weeks imprisonment and ordered to pay a £122 victim surcharge.
Commander Richard Smith, head of the Metropolitan Police's Counter Terrorism Command, said: “There are clear rules for registered terrorist offenders who are subject to notification orders and Mulindwa broke one of them.
“Notification orders serve a serious purpose and are an important tool to help keep the public safe from harm.”
