Jabed Hussain, from Acton, pleaded guilty at the Old Bailey on Thursday to two counts of preparing terrorist acts after being caught at the Turkish border. The 22-year-old first attempted to reach the IS strongholds in August 2015, but was detained by Turkish authorities at the border and returned to the UK. Continue to pray for UK Police's Counter-Terrorism Command as more potential jihadists attempt to join IS in its territories, or return to the UK after being trained abroad. Last month it was reported that IS has been recruiting violent criminals and gang members across Europe in a dangerous new ‘crime-terror nexus’. Pray for Interpol and other agencies to thwart and close down terrorist cells wherever they attempt to spring up.
