According to the UK media, Choudary, 51, had links to about 500 UK citizens who fled to Syria and Iraq to swell Daesh's ranks. He, in particular, was accused of attempting to get new supporters involved in Daesh activities through social networks from June 29, 2014 to March 6, 2015.
Choudary, convicted in 2016, was due for automatic release after having served half of his sentence, with the time he had spent on remand being taken into account.
