Muslim cleric Abdul Nacer Benbrika and six followers are taken from the Supreme Court by prison truck after they were jailed for up to 15 years after being found guilty of forming an Australian terror cell which plotted bomb attacks designed to kill thousands in Melbourne on February 3, 2009. Benbrika, 48, was jailed for 15 years, of which he must serve at least 12 years, while his followers received minimum terms of between four and seven-and-a-half years. Algerian-born Benbrika had urged them to target large crowds at football matches or a train station to pressure the Australian government to withdraw its soldiers from Iraq and Afghanistan, the court heard.
