Luiz 4,253 Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 Returning Islamist fighters offered ‘jihadi rehab’ instead of prosecution for supporting blood-thirsty terrorist groups despite May's pledges OLD ARTICLE NOV 9th 2014 my bad y'all Returning Islamist fighters are being offered ‘jihadi rehab’ instead of prosecution for supporting blood-thirsty terrorist groups.The vast majority of more than 300 young men who have arrived back from Syria and Iraq are being allowed to continue their normal lives.Many have been offered places on the Government’s counter-radicalisation scheme, known as the Channel programme, which has seen a substantial rise in referrals. Evidence of the ‘softer approach’ comes despite assurances from Home Secretary Theresa May that terrorist sympathisers will face the full force of the law. She said new legislation should be ready by the end of this month as David Cameron insisted returning jihadists should face ‘criminal investigations and prosecution’.Two Cardiff men who travelled to Syria have been allowed to return to their homes despite being arrested under the Terrorism Act. Ahmed Mohammadi, 19, and Shahid Miah, 23, were released without charge and instead referred to Channel despite their close ties with Islamic State. The scheme has seen a 58 per cent rise (from 748 to 1,281) in the number of referrals in the past year as the crisis in the Middle East grew. Whitehall sources said one of the biggest problems is securing evidence of terrorist activities committed by Britons 2,000 miles away in Syria. One told the Sunday Times that investigators also want to balance the approach towards returning jihadists with the need to avoid being perceived as ‘anti- Muslim’. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2827608/Returning-Islamist-fighters-offered-jihadi-rehab-instead-prosecution-supporting-blood-thirsty-terrorist-groups-despite-s-pledges.html <read more here I disapprove of what you say, but will defend to the death your right to say it.

Goosey 3,017 Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 Um why are they not arresting them? Why even let them in the country at all? They are IS terrorists.
