A BARNSLEY man has been charged with spreading terrorist publications.
The 42-year-old, who has not been named, has been conditionally bailed after being charged with one offence of disseminating terrorist material, under section two of the Terrorism Act 2000.
He will appear at the Central Criminal Court on October 21.
A spokesperson for the Counter Terrorism Police said: “The man was arrested, assisted by South Yorkshire Police, in May, following an investigation into suspected extreme right wing terrorism online.”
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
