News summary

Ehsan Hussain, a 25-year-old man of Pakistani origin, has been sentenced to two years and four months in prison for inciting racial hatred online during riots across the UK. Using a false identity, 'Chris Nolan,' he posted inflammatory messages in a Telegram group with over 12,000 members, calling for violence against racial minorities, particularly targeting Muslim communities in Birmingham. His posts, which included calls to 'conquer Alum Rock' and urged for racial violence, contributed to unrest following the Southport stabbings. The West Midlands Police investigation revealed that Hussain's actions misled the far-right group, who were unaware of his true identity. Judge Melbourne Inman condemned Hussain's use of 'vile racist language' and highlighted the broader societal harm caused by his actions amidst civil unrest. Hussain expressed remorse for his behavior, which his defense attributed to a lack of maturity and poor judgment.
