Arrested in December 2018 from his home, 35-year-old Fatah Mohamed Abdullah from Newcastle pleaded guilty to assisting other people in Germany to commit acts of terrorism in their own country and also to incite terrorism overseas, reports Xinhua news agency.
He was found to have purchased thousands of matches, pre-cursor chemicals, fireworks, fuses and other components to be used in the production of improvised explosives devices, and recorded himself testing a remote control detonator he had purchased.
