Overview

• Nicholas Brock was sentenced at Oxford Crown Court to one year for each of two counts of making threats to kill, to run consecutively for a total of two years.
• The threats were made at HMP Bullingdon on May 20 and October 9, 2024, targeting prison officer Christopher English and probation officer Saiqa Yasmin.
• Counter Terrorism Policing South East searched his Maidenhead address in March 2025 and seized deactivated firearms, knives, swords, a knuckle duster, and a walking‑stick sword.
• Investigators said Brock claimed criminal associates could reactivate the firearms and assessed that his aggressive behavior escalated as his potential release approached.
• Brock previously received a 2021 sentence for possessing documents useful to terrorists, with investigators also finding racist material and Christchurch attack footage, and police urged the public to report signs of radicalisation.
