A police officer has been convicted of being a member of a neo-Nazi terrorist group, three years after he was allowed to join the Metropolitan Police.
Benjamin Hannam became involved with National Action in 2016 and continued activities with a successor group after it was banned in December that year.
The 22-year-old is believed to be the first British police officer ever to be convicted of a terror offence.
He was found guilty of membership of a terrorist organisation following a trial that was subject to blanket reporting restrictions, and also admitted possessing a prohibited image of a child.
