Judges to quash terror conviction

Jan 29 2010

The first man in Scotland to be found guilty of Islamist terrorism charges suffered a miscarriage of justice, appeal court judges have said.

And they said they were "minded" to quash the conviction of British-born Mohammed Atif Siddique.

Siddique, branded a "wannabe suicide bomber" at his trial, was jailed for eight years in October 2007 for a series of terror offences.
