Facebook ‘reactivated suspected jihadi’s account eight times – despite him posting sick ISIS videos’
Abdulrahman Alcharbati was allowed to continue using his Facebook account after posting ISIS videos, a court heard
FACEBOOK reactivated a terror suspect’s account eight times — so he could post more IS videos, a court was told yesterday.
Abdulrahman Alcharbati, 31, was told at least four times it would never be reopened, jurors heard.
But the web giant relented on successive appeals.
In one email Alcharbati said: “Allah will hold you responsible for your actions.”
One video saw a suicide bomber blow up a car while another urged jihadists to cut Westerners’ throats with a knife.
Facebook made his suspension permanent last March.

The civil engineer, of Sunderland, denies disseminating and possessing terrorist material.
The trial continues at Newcastle crown court.
