Man admits sharing far-right terrorist documents
PA MediaA man from south-east London has admitted sharing extreme right-wing terrorist material on Telegram chat.
Alfie Stevens, 24, of Surrey Quays, pleaded guilty to three charges of dissemination of a terrorist document during a hearing at the Old Bailey.
The offences related to posts Stevens made to two groups on the encrypted Telegram app on 27 January 2021.
He shared two documents in a group called Band Of Brothers.
He also posted one of them in a group named White Race Camp.
The charges stated that at the time he intended his actions to be a "direct or indirect encouragement" of terrorism or was "reckless to whether his conduct had such an effect".

The defendant was granted continued unconditional bail.
