An Afghan TikTok user has been jailed in the UK for making violent threats against Nigel Farage in a social media video that showed him miming gunfire and referring directly to the politician.
The man, identified in court as Fayaz Khan, was convicted at Southwark Crown Court of making a threat to kill and sentenced to five years in prison. He had entered the UK illegally from Sweden, where he has previous convictions for violent offences.
