LONDON (Reuters) - A man who possessed a computer with "terrorist material" including a video on how to make a bomb vest was jailed for four years on Monday.

Rizwan Ditta, 29, from Halifax in West Yorkshire, had pleaded guilty at Leeds Crown Court to two charges of possessing records likely to be useful to terrorists, police said.

Ditta was arrested in January following an investigation by the Counter Terrorism Command. A computer hard drive containing the offensive material was found in his bedroom wardrobe.
