Tank Jowett has been instructed to represent an individual in a counter-terrorism investigation under the Terrorism Act 2000. The case involves allegations of distributing or circulating a terrorist publication, with the prosecution arguing that the conduct was intended to directly encourage acts of terrorism or offences under international conventions.
The trial began at Woolwich Crown Court on 1 September 2025, a venue often reserved for the most serious terrorism-related proceedings in the UK.
This complex case has required input from more than five independent experts, reflecting the highly technical and sensitive nature of the issues under consideration.
The defence team is led by partner Adnan Hussain and Ornela Marku solicitor, with David Gottlieb of Thomas More Chambers representing the client in court.
