General Info:
Junead Khan is a British Islamic extremist who is facing a life sentence after being found guilty of planning a terrorist attack on American military personnel in Britain.

He was working as delivery driver, and used his job with a pharmaceutical firm as cover to scout United States Air Force (Usaf) bases in East Anglia, his trial heard.

Detectives later found he had been exchanging chilling online messages with an Islamic State fighter in Syria calling himself Abu Hussain, describing attacking military personnel after faking a road accident.

Prosecutors claimed Hussain was in fact British-born Junaid Hussain, who was killed in a US drone strike in the Islamic State stronghold of Raqqa weeks after his link with the planned UK attack was discovered.

After Khan was arrested in July, police found pictures on his phone of him posing in his bedroom with an Islamic State-style black flag, which they later found in the attic. His computer was also found to contain an al-Qaida bomb manual and Amazon searches for a large combat knife.

Khan was found guilty of preparing for an act of terrorism in the UK between May and July 2015 after a trial at Kingston crown court in London. He was also convicted alongside his uncle Shazib Khan of preparing to go to Syria to join the Islamic State. Some of the evidence used to convict the pair cannot be revealed for legal reasons.

The prosecution had alleged that Junead Khan planned to travel to Syria with his relative but altered his plan to focus on an attack in the UK, either on British or US service personnel.
