Patel said the government would increase resources for police and probation officers to investigate and track terror crimes, make tougher sentences and increase surveillance after prisoners are released.

The government of Prime Minister Boris Johnson will submit a new anti-terrorism law, which stipulates dangerous terrorist criminals will have to serve the entire prison term without pardon ahead of time.

The new policy will also ensure dangerous criminals, behaving like preparing to attack a terrorist or leading a terrorist organization, will spend at least 14 years in prison.

The British government's move comes after 28-year-old Usman Khan, a knife stab on the London Bridge on November 29, 2019, killed two people and was imprisoned for only seven years despite being sentenced to 16 years for participating. a terrorist attack plot.

Khan was released before the deadline in December 2018 on condition that he had to comply with 20 strict requirements, including wearing surveillance equipment and not arriving in London. Before the attack, however, probation officials allowed Khan to London to attend a conference for former prisoners at Cambridge University.

The UK government said it would also consider supporting victims of terrorist attacks, pledging to spend around £ 500,000 "to ensure more victims are supported faster." The budget for the counter-terrorism police force also increased from £ 90 million to £ 906 million in the following fiscal year.

Prime Minister Johnson has vowed that all terrorists will face a full sentence and spend a day in jail after the knife-piercing incident on the London Bridge. Johnson pledged to change the law to ensure that every sentence sentenced to terrorists and extremists is not shortened.
