"Police discovered fragments of text on Dart's laptop that revealed that the pair had used the computer to have a "silent conversation" to avoid possible surveillance bugs.<p>They would open a word processor document and take it in turns to type, before deleting the text and mistakenly assuming none of it would be stored on the machine.<p>However forensic experts were able to plough through 2,000 pages of computer code to decipher fragments of what was said."

Why didn't they just, you know, talk to each other? It sounds as if they were sat next to one another at the same computer...

"Dart refused to stand when he was sentenced, and said: "I don't wish to stand up, I believe ruling and judging is only for Allah." "<p>This makes me unbelievably angry. You hear that and you just know that their mental process is just broken, no amount of time spent in prison is going to help.
