A convicted Islamic State terrorist who slipped into Britain by small boat using a false identity has been jailed after biometric checks exposed his deception and linked him to a prior terrorism conviction in Germany.
Mohammed Yaseen, 35, crossed the English Channel in December 2025 posing as a Kuwaiti national under a fake name and date of birth before being placed in asylum accommodation at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Basingstoke. Fingerprint checks later revealed his true identity.
