Facebook reactivated the account of a terror suspect after he warned them they would have to answer to "Allah The All Merciful", a court has heard.

The social media giant suspended Abdulrahman Alcharbati's account on nine occasions after he posted sickening Isil propaganda videos, but reinstated it each time when he complained.

He had his account suspended on December 20th 2016, January 9th, January 26th, January 30th, February 6/7, February 11, February 17, March 10.

But each time he was able to persuade the company to reinstate the account, until it was permanently shutdown on March 15.

Emails between the 31-year-old and Facebook's moderators were read out to the jury at Newcastle Crown Court, where​ he ​is standing trial accused of terror offences.

On the first occasion his account, on which he had 6,400 friends and followers, was taken down, he was told it would be permanent and would not be reactivated "for any reason."
