Five men jailed for drumming up support for Islamic State

A group of extremists with links to hate preacher Anjem Choudary have been jailed for their part in drumming up support for Islamic State following a series of meetings in Luton.

They were found guilty of terrorism offences following a 20-month undercover operation by police.

Meetings, held in a marquee in a Luton garden and a nearby church, urged people to support the terror group and go to Syria to fight.
