Facebook disabled the account of a terror suspect nine times but repeatedly reactivated it, even as he continued posting violent Islamic State propaganda videos, a court has heard.

Abdulrahman Alcharbati, 31, is standing trial accused of sharing scores of links from his Facebook account that encouraged acts of terror. The engineer is also charged with possessing a bomb-making manual, called Easy Explosives Fourth Edition, on his mobile phone when he was arrested last year.

A jury at Newcastle crown court heard that Alcharbati posted hundreds of links on Facebook between 24 January and 26 February last year, including footage of Syrian soldiers being killed by Isis militants.

Seventy of his posts referred directly to Isis and 40 mentioned martyrdom, the court was told. Jurors heard that on 8 February last year, between 1.45am and 10.49am, Alcharbati was found to have posted six videos on his open Facebook page that were produced by Isis.

The first showed the soldiers being killed while a crowd was “whipped into a frenzy” by Isis militants. Another video showed child soldiers undergoing training to join Isis and urged people to “join the caravan of the caliphate and live under its shelter”.

There was also footage of a suicide bomber driving away before detonating a car packed with explosives with a message in Arabic stating “Drink death with happiness” emblazoned over it, the jury heard.

Another urged those watching: “Get an American or French kafir (disbeliever) and whack them with a rock, cut their throat with a knife, crush them with a car, suffocate or poison them, do not fail.”

On 20 December 2016 a Facebook “community operations analyst” who called himself “Bobs” told Alcharbati his account was being permanently disabled. However, after Alcharbati sent a flurry of emails expressing his outrage, Facebook relented nine times between December 2016 and 15 March last year when his account was finally taken down for good.

In one message, Facebook told him: “After reviewing your appeal we have reactivated your account. Please keep in mind that one of our main priorities is the comfort and safety of the people who use Facebook. We do not allow credible threats to harm others, support for violent organisations or let exceedingly graphic content live on Facebook.”

The court heard Alcharbati sent numerous emails complaining the suspension of his account was affecting his freedom of speech and his career. On 12 January he wrote: “By closing my Facebook account arbitrarily without any consideration to the consequences you have implemented on me is causing a great financial and social damage to myself, family and career.”

The following month, shortly before his account was finally disabled, Alcharbati wrote to Facebook: “Please have mercy, compassion, morals, dignity and honour and don’t be participants in these horrible atrocities because history will not forget and will not forgive. And at the end you will stand in front of the Creator Allah The All Merciful and will have to answer for your doing.”

The court heard Facebook disabled Alcharbati’s account on 20 December 2016, 9 January, 26 January, 30 January, 6/7 February, 11 February, 17 February, 10 March and finally on 15 March.

Alcharbati denies six counts of disseminating terrorist material and one count of possessing a document containing information likely to be of use to a person preparing or committing an act of terrorism.

The trial continues.
