Coventry student guilty of making IS chemical weapon drone
By Caroline Gall & PA news agency Bbc News , West Midlands
A PhD student has been convicted of designing and building a drone for terror group Islamic State (IS) that was capable of delivering a bomb.
Mohamad Al-Bared denied supporting IS after The Device was found in a bedroom at his Coventry home along with a 3D printer capable of making parts for it.
Prosecutors alleged it
Al-Bared denied a charge of engaging in conduct in preparation for terrorism.
Jurors at Birmingham Crown Court were told the Mechanical Engineering graduate was arrested at the same time a raid was carried out at the home he shared with his parents.
Officers seized several devices and also found an IS application form which Al-Bared, 27, denied filling in.
Prosecutor Michelle Heeley KC told The Court the idea for The Drone was " somewhat inspired by the design of the Tomahawk missile" based on material recovered from his Electronic Devices .
The Material included references to fuses, mechanical detonators and an " explosive" head, She Said .
The Drone , shown to jurors, also had a landing gear and a small Digital Camera .
Al-Bared, who was studying at Birmingham University and specialising in laser-drilling, said he had no plans to assist IS and had made a drone for his own research purposes.
He also said he had researched IS to argue against its aims with others at a mosque.
But The Prosecution said it was clear from encrypted online chats and other digital material that he supported IS and he intended to make a " single-use" video-transmitting, fixed-wing drone for terrorist purposes, and to travel to Africa via Turkey.
His conviction centred on preparations in January Last Year .
Judge Paul Farrer KC told Al-Bared that he had been convicted of an offence of " the utmost gravity" and a long prison sentence was " The Inevitable consequence" when he was next before The Court on 27 November.
West Midlands counter terrorism police said Al-Bared had worked out How To get The Drone into A War zone without being stopped by authorities and had Set Up a spoof company so he could pretend to be travelling on business.
Det Ch Supt Mark Payne, head of the West Midlands unit, said: " Al-Bared was a calculated individual and coupled with his education and expertise in mechanical and Chemical Engineering he was clearly very dangerous.
" He has made a purpose-built drone able to carry explosives or chemicals to be used as a weapon in A War zone.
" Thankfully he was unable to continue his efforts following his swift arrest earlier this year. "
