Aabid Khan

Aabid Khan

A British youth, Aabid Khan was convicted in August 2008 of being a "terrorist propagandist".

Life

Khan worked at the "At Tibyan" website, run by Younes Tsouli. "His naivety was combined with a deadly seriousness", and he spoke about setting up a miniature Islamic state in Scotland.Swann, Steve. BBC, [http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/7549447.stm Aabid Khan and his global jihad] , August 18 2008]

He was accused of "grooming and radicalising" Mohammed Atif Siddique, who was later arrested as he prepared to fly to Pakistan to meet with Khan, and charged with collecting photographs and videos of notable terrorist actions.

Arrest and trial

Arrested in June 2006, after disembarking from his flight from Pakistan - Khan asked police if his father would find out about the "incriminating" documents found in his luggage.

In 2008, videos of the 2006 Canadian terrorism camps were released as evidence in the trial, allowing Canadian media to work around a publication ban that forbid them from disclosing information gleaned from the ongoing Canadian trial.
