Jacob Bindman of the Garden Court Crime Team acted for the defendant, instructed by Madeleine Corr of Shaw Graham Kersh LLP.
Jacob Bindman acted for the young defendant in this long-running case involving multiple sets of proceedings under s.2 of the Terrorism Act 2006. Having successfully argued that one of the charges did not fall within the definition of a “terrorist publication”, the boy was eventually handed a non-custodial sentence for the remaining offences under s.2 and related breaches of a criminal behaviour order.
This followed extensive work by the defence and instructed experts to set out the young defendant’s complex neurodevelopmental issues.
