Muslim migrant from Somalia found guilty of terrorism offenses in Melbourne, Australia


A Melbourne man is facing a lengthy jail term after being found guilty of three charges relating to plans to travel to Syria to fight against the government of Bashar al-Assad.

Amin Mohamed, 25, was charged in December with three counts of making preparations to travel to a foreign country to engage in hostile acts.

The case against Mohamed detailed how he applied for a New Zealand passport to enter Syria, booked flights to Turkey, and obtained the contact details of a Turkish resident with the intent of fighting in Syria.
