A man has admitted sharing a video by terrorist group Boko Haram in a WhatsApp chat.
Shakil Chapra, 43, from Slough, pleaded guilty to dissemination of terrorist publications at a hearing at Kingston Crown Court.
Police said Chapra shared the video on 11 September 2019 in support of the Nigerian militant Islamist group.
Det Ch Supt Kath Barnes said the video promoted "terrorist propaganda with its distorted ideology".
"We are especially aware at the moment about the risk of online radicalisation and the real risk this has had during lockdown," she added.
