The Court of Appeal refused renewed leave to appeal by Anjem Choudary and Khaled Hussein in a terrorism case, upholding evidential rulings and sentences.
The sentence imposed was not manifestly excessive or wrong in principle; the judge was entitled to find high culpability and medium-high harm, and the extended licence period was lawful and proportionate. No real merit in appeal or prospect of injustice; application for leave to appeal and extension of time refused.

Abid, R. v [2026] EWCA Crim 360 (12 February 2026)
The Court of Appeal refused leave to appeal against sentence and refused an extension of time for a man convicted of breaching terrorism notification requirements.
The evidence was sufficient for a reasonable jury to convict; the admitted evidence was relevant and not unfairly prejudicial; the excluded evidence was irrelevant; the jury directions were adequate; there was no evidential basis for the reasonable excuse defence; and there was no infringement of the applicant's ECHR rights. None of the grounds of appeal were arguable and the convictions were safe.

TPD, R. v [2026] EWCA Crim 16 (20 January 2026)
The Court of Appeal upheld a sentence for breaching a TPIM notice and confirmed that a Serious Crime Prevention Order was properly imposed.
The Court of Appeal upheld sentence and a SCPO for four breaches of a TPIM notice, holding that risk from breach was inherently very serious and mitigation was properly weighed.
, R. v Ahmed [2025] EWCA Crim 1778 (10 December 2025)
The Court of Appeal Criminal Division refused Ahmed’s renewed application for leave to appeal conviction for failing to disclose information about terrorism.
The convictions must be quashed because the statutory preconditions are satisfied: the appellant was convicted of breaching a Temporary Exclusion Order, and that order has since been quashed ab initio.
Source excerpt
The sentence imposed was not manifestly excessive or wrong in principle; the sentencing judge correctly assessed the high culpability and moderate to high harm, properly balanced aggravating and mitigating factors, and followed the required sentencing process in the absence of specific guidelines.
