Latest data has revealed the number of teenagers being arrested by police for terrorism-related offences is rising in the UK. Home Office statistics have shown that there were 190 counter terrorism arrests in the last year to September.
Children under 18 years of age made up 16 per cent (31 reports) of the total number of arrests made. This is a three per cent increase from the previous year.
In light of the data, Counter Terrorism Policing are urging people to be 'vigilant' in their online lives and say they are 'concerned' about the influence online content is having on those arrested.
