LONDON, Oct 2, (AFP): Britain’s youngest person convicted of terrorism was sentenced Friday to a minimum of five years in jail for plotting an Islamic State-inspired “massacre” on an Anzac Day parade in Australia. The boy, nicknamed “the terrorist” by his classmates, was ony 14 when he masterminded the plot to behead police officers at a memorial event in Melbourne, from his bedroom in Lancashire, northern England. He was handed a life sentence at Manchester Crown Court but may be released after five years under the terms of the ruling.
