Terror plot BA man Rajib Karim gets 30 years

A former British Airways software engineer has been jailed for 30 years for plotting to blow up a plane.

Rajib Karim, 31, from Newcastle, used his job to access information for an al-Qaeda preacher based in Yemen to target BA's flights in the US.

Sentencing him at Woolwich Crown Court, Mr Justice Calvert-Smith said he was a committed jihadist who planned offences "about as grave as could be imagined".

The judge said he had worked "incessantly" for terrorist purposes.

He's 31, he'll be out at the latest when he's 61.
Earlier with good behaviour/parole.
He'll be able to continue on his merry ways when he gets out. Unless he converts whilst imprisoned.
Buckleys of that happening.

30 years, what a joke.

He can get a longer sentence when he apparently came from Newcastle, where they are "tough" especially if the beer is running low

He will be out in 10 years and that's a fact.

Well he certainly wasn't a Geordie

He'll be doing his 30 then automatic deportation has been included in the sentence.

Should have kicked him out in the first place.
