A man who was convicted of terror offences has been sent back to prison after breaching the terms of the terrorism prevention and investigation measure (Tpim) that was imposed upon him on his release.

The man, who can be identified only as EF, was jailed for 20 months at the Old Bailey. The court heard that the breaches included using a mobile telephone to call Mesut Baybasin, a former jail mate, and receiving money that came indirectly from Baybasin.

Under the terms of the order, he was prohibited from using communication devices without authority, or possessing more than £75 cash in any one week.

The court also heard that the 28-year-old had been suffering depression before committing the breaches and was briefly detained for treatment under the Mental Health Act.
