[Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News]
  • Mamun Rashid, who attempted to join jihadi camp, has been jailed for 12 years

  • Rashid, from London, funded terror plot with student loan and carer's allowance

  • He flew from London to Istanbul and spent six months trying to get into Syria

  • He was near the north Syrian border when he was caught by authorities in 2019

  • His defence team said Rashid had no plan to join Isis or any other specific terror organisation, describing his plan as 'staggeringly amateurish'
