PA Media A self-proclaimed Satanist who claimed he made a pact with a "red-horned devil" has been found guilty of having extreme right-wing material. Former Brit school of Performing Arts student Declan George Candiani, 26, was stopped by counter-terrorism police at Stansted Airport as he attempted to go on holiday to Finland with his girlfriend, on 13 August 2024. On seeing the contents of his phone, officers arrested him and searched the home he shares with his mother in Streatham, south-west London.
We can confirm that on Saturday, counter-terrorism officers at Gatwick airport stopped a man in his 70s and a woman in her 40s under schedule 3 of the Counter Terrorism and Border Security Act 2019. Neither of them were arrested and they were allowed on their way.
Counter-terrorism authorities have characterized keeping up with terrorist organizations as a game of Whac-a-Mole, especially with the rise of digital tools and social media.
