A further three people suspected of being members of far-right group National Action have been charged with terrorism offences.

Garry Jack, 22, and Daniel Ward, 28, both from Birmingham, were charged alongside an unnamed 17-year-old man from Nottingham. They were accused of being members of the group contrary to section 11 of the Terrorism Act 2000.

The trio, arrested after an investigation by West Midlands Counter Terrorism Unit, will appear at Westminster Magistrates' Court on Tuesday.

The pair, who share a flat, held hands as they stood in the dock at court, the BBC reported.
