Terror suspect who went on ‘active shooter’ course in Poland banned from returning to Britain
A TERROR suspect who went on an “active shooter” course in Poland has been banned from returning to Britain.
The 37-year-old man was stripped of his Brit citizenship after MI5 warned he was “a threat to UK national security”.
The Krav Maga Urban Extreme Active Shooter course advertised that it could improve people’s “shooting fundamentals”.
The Islamist fanatic — born in an undisclosed non-European country — already had serious convictions for firearms and drugs offences.
His citizenship was revoked in 2021 and the Special Immigration Appeals Commission rejected his appeal.
The Home Office said it was “pleased” that the SIAC found in its favour.

He came to the UK in 2000 and was given UK citizenship two years later before completing his education at a South London secondary school.
But he fell into a life of crime and was jailed for three years and four months in 2007 for supplying Class A drugs.
In 2009, after his release from prison he was arrested fleeing a car which crashed after a police chase.
Officers found a blank-firing pistol fitted with an improvised barrel - with a round of live ammunition in the breach and five more in its magazine - near the car.
