A gun and a large quantity of hollow point ammunition was seized after a home in a historic Wirral village was raided by police.
Alan Madden, 65, of Boundary Road, Port Sunlight, was yesterday jailed for seven and a half years after pleading guilty to a litany of charges relating to his online activity. The ECHO revealed Madden was charged with dissemination of terrorist publications - relating to sharing a video of banned right-wing organisation National Action - and three counts of inciting racial hatred.
After a raid at his house on September 15 last year, police uncovered weapons including a Czech CZ 83 gun, nun chucks, a flick knife, as well as hollow point ammunition - designed to expand upon impact - which would be used in the 9mm pistol. Disturbing reports heard in Liverpool Crown Court revealed Madden had smuggled the gun into the UK from South Africa where he had used the gun to kill a robber.
