HKMohammad Bashir, 31, has been sentenced to life imprisonment for planning a terrorist attack alongside Jihad Al-Shamie, who carried out a deadly stabbing at a Manchester synagogue in October. Al-Shamie was killed by police after the attack, which resulted in two fatalities. Bashir admitted to preparing terrorist acts and was involved in scouting the UK’s Defence Academy in Swindon with Al-Shamie in August.
