An alleged supporter of the Islamic State group has gone on trial in London, accused of encouraging attacks on 4‑year‑old Prince George.
The AP reports that prosecutors say 32‑year‑old Husnain Rashid provided an "e‑toolkit for terrorism" on an online channel he ran under the name the Lone Mujahid.
Prosecutor Annabel Darlow told a jury that Rashid encouraged attacks on a range of targets, including "injecting poison into supermarket ice creams and targeting Prince George at his first school."
Prosecutors say one post included a photo of the prince, his school's address, a silhouette of a jihadi fighter and the message "even the royal family will not be left alone."
Rashid, a mosque teacher from Nelson in northwest England, is accused of encouraging "lone wolf" attacks and providing advice on using bombs, chemicals and knives.
