Leading Islamic hate scholar Anjem Choudary lodges appeal against life sentence

Islamist hate preacher Anjem Choudary has lodged an appeal against his life sentence.

Choudary, 57, who police said had a “radicalising impact” on religious fundamentalists, was convicted in July after being found guilty of running a terrorist organisation.

He will spend more than 26 years in jail in total owing to the time he has already spent in custody, meaning he will not be released before the age of 85.
