Two German Muslim converts detained at the Port of Dover in July have appeared at the Old Bailey accused of possessing material on jihad.
Christian Emde, 28, and Robert Baum, 23, were arrested at the Port of Dover on July 15. They have been charged with having information which could be be of use in terrorism. The men are alleged to have stored the material on a computer and a hard-drive.
Emde was further charged with four similar offenses under the Terrorism Act involving articles with titles such as "Destroying Buildings" and "Make a bomb in the kitchen of your mom".
That would be that slick magazine that al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula puts out. | Emde and Baum appeared in court in black prayer caps and refused to stand for the judge.
Emde, of Konrad Adenauer Strasse, Solingen, Germany, and Baum, of Peter-Rasspe Strasse, Solingen, will appear in court in December for a plea and management hearing. |
