The British radical Islamic cleric Anjem Choudary has been

:00:08.:00:14.

convicted of inviting support for the so-called Islamic State.

:00:15.:00:19.

At the Olympics in Rio, American gymnast Simone Biles has

:00:20.:00:22.

taken her fourth gold medal in the floor exercise.

:00:23.:00:25.

Also, Usain Bolt was back on the track in the last few hours -

:00:26.:00:33.

he won his 200 mETRE heat comfortably.

:00:34.:00:35.

We'll get a full round-up from Rio in a few minutes.

:00:36.:00:38.

Russia has launched air raids in Syria from a base in Iran

:00:39.:00:42.

for the first time - we'll hear from BBC

:00:43.:00:44.

And we'll hear from the boss of one of France's best known champagne

:00:45.:00:51.

houses about why he plans to start a vineyard in the UK.

:00:52.:01:11.

Here in the UK, the radical preacher Anjem Choudary has been

:01:12.:01:14.

found guilty of inviting support for so called Islamic State.

:01:15.:01:19.

Another man, who stood trial with him, Mohammed Mizanur Rahman,

:01:20.:01:21.

was also convicted of the same charge.

:01:22.:01:24.

The two were found guilty three weeks ago.

:01:25.:01:27.

But for legal reasons the BBC, like the rest of the media,

:01:28.:01:30.

has not been able to report the verdicts until now.

:01:31.:01:34.

Choudary and Rahman are due to be sentenced on 6th September.

:01:35.:01:37.

The whole world, one day, my dear brothers,

:01:38.:01:40.

Including Hackney, and Walthamstow, and Moscow, and New York.

:01:41.:01:46.

All of the countries, inshallah,

:01:47.:01:48.

Anjem Choudary has long been a provocative figure.

:01:49.:01:59.

For years, the police and intelligence agencies

:02:00.:02:02.

have been monitoring his movements and speeches.

:02:03.:02:05.

He knew this and, as a trained lawyer, he knew how to stay

:02:06.:02:09.

on the right side of the law - until now.

:02:10.:02:13.

If you look at his influence and the impact,

:02:14.:02:19.

that was then available to people across the world.

:02:20.:02:22.

Without a doubt, those speeches and material he posted was used

:02:23.:02:25.

In my view, the UK is a safer place with him behind bars.

:02:26.:02:33.

Choudary has now been convicted of inviting support

:02:34.:02:36.

The jury wasn't told that one of his keenest followers,

:02:37.:02:42.

Siddhartha Dhar, fled the UK while on bail and joined IS.

:02:43.:02:47.

He is suspected of being the new "Jihadi John",

:02:48.:02:50.

Dhar posted this picture of himself when he arrived in Syria.

:02:51.:02:56.

His newborn son in one arm, an AK-47 in the other.

:02:57.:03:01.

The injustice, and the oppression done to the Muslim community

:03:02.:03:06.

And amongst others to fall under Anjem Choudary's spell

:03:07.:03:10.

He was one of the pair who went on to murder Fusilier Lee Rigby

:03:11.:03:16.

Muslims are dying daily by British soldiers.

:03:17.:03:21.

Richard Dart was another Anjem Choudary disciple.

:03:22.:03:24.

Here, Choudary was actually converting him to Islam.

:03:25.:03:33.

Three years ago, Dart was jailed for terrorism offences.

:03:34.:03:37.

As a film-maker, his brother met the radical preacher

:03:38.:03:41.

He's kind of like a father figure to these young guys,

:03:42.:03:49.

He radicalises people, he indoctrinates them

:03:50.:03:57.

Choudary wasn't always so anti-Western.

:03:58.:04:04.

As a student, he liked to drink and wasn't offended by pictures

:04:05.:04:08.

But from his 20s, he became a political zealot.

:04:09.:04:14.

Anjem Choudary delivered his speeches on streets like this,

:04:15.:04:17.

Down the years, he's been linked to countless extremists,

:04:18.:04:24.

But he was never charged with any serious offence.

:04:25.:04:29.

It was the conflict in Syria which changed this.

:04:30.:04:34.

In the summer of 2014, the IS leadership declared

:04:35.:04:38.

the establishment of an Islamic state.

:04:39.:04:41.

Choudary pledged an oath of allegiance to it and, in talks,

:04:42.:04:45.

The leader who relished being at the centre of events,

:04:46.:04:51.

and had been a teacher to so many, had crossed the legal line.

:04:52.:04:56.

Anjem Choudary, in his police custody picture.

:04:57.:04:59.

After two decades, his inflammatory rhetoric has finally been silenced.

:05:00.:05:12.

US gymnast Simone Biles has secured her fourth

:05:13.:05:20.

gold of the Rio Olympics in the women's floor exercise.

:05:21.:05:22.

It comes on a busy day for the games with plenty

:05:23.:05:25.

Let's go straight to Rio - Chris Mitchell is there for us.

:05:26.:05:31.

Let's begin with the Golden girl of the US gymnastics, the woman's floor

:05:32.:05:40.

exercise. Quite a thing to watch. It's amazing. She tries things like

:05:41.:05:47.

double backward somersault with blind landings and her body fully

:05:48.:05:52.

extended in the air. She does things no other gymnast has tried before,

:05:53.:05:57.

that is why she has gone with the sport since 2013. This was the

:05:58.:06:03.

individual floor event, she was expected to win and she won

:06:04.:06:09.

comfortably. She's such a diminutive figure, very small, she has a

:06:10.:06:13.

compact body, this is why she can get so much height and performed so

:06:14.:06:19.

well but people are calling her the best gymnast ever. She saw she was

:06:20.:06:25.

human on the beam where she only got bronze, so four golds and a bronze

:06:26.:06:29.

for some mobiles. Her team-mate Ali Raynes man got the silver and

:06:30.:06:35.

Britain's Amy Tinkler won a bronze, a surprising bronze for Great

:06:36.:06:40.

Britain. She said after words it's been incredible, I cannot believe

:06:41.:06:45.

it, I am in shock. Only the second British woman to win at gymnastics

:06:46.:06:53.

medal after Best Wessels did it in 2012 so something of a bonus bronze

:06:54.:06:58.

for Great Britain at all eyes were on Simone Biles and she didn't let

:06:59.:07:04.

anyone down. Adopted at sex, she discovered gymnastics at six, she

:07:05.:07:08.

then found her coach who had taken someone who was perfectly shaped for

:07:09.:07:15.

gymnastics and created this. She has many years ahead of and is bound to

:07:16.:07:19.

more goods, perhaps if she can get five golds, she can head off Michael

:07:20.:07:25.

Phelps as the most decorated Olympian but that is a long way off.

:07:26.:07:30.

So we have lots to watch for the fourth Tokyo. Let's move on to the

:07:31.:07:36.

women's football, just seeing that Sweden beat Brazil on penalties. We

:07:37.:07:43.

were not expecting this. It gets worse because in the group stages

:07:44.:07:50.

Rizal thumped Sweden 5-1, so the Brazilian fans thought this was an

:07:51.:07:54.

easy win but this is the Swedish side that knocked out the US in the

:07:55.:07:59.

quarterfinals, they have now knocked out the hosts in the semifinals.

:08:00.:08:05.

Sweden the team that the US player called car words for parking the

:08:06.:08:10.

bus, that old chestnut input old terminology, but that is what Sweden

:08:11.:08:17.

did, they did not let's Brazilians get anywhere near the goal. Brazil

:08:18.:08:23.

deeply disappointed, because it is a religion here. I know people were

:08:24.:08:30.

knocking off name are in earlier days, I don't know what will happen

:08:31.:08:35.

with them, but that's go back to Team GB. We have sailing, cycling to

:08:36.:08:45.

get into. The sailing we knew about because it was Giles Scott who had

:08:46.:08:50.

already on Tuesday done so well in the Finn class that all he had to do

:08:51.:08:54.

was turn up to date to claim the gold medal and that is what he did.

:08:55.:08:59.

He gets a gold for Great Britain, that was expected later the

:09:00.:09:05.

velodrome we will have Laura Trott in the cycling. She could do the

:09:06.:09:13.

double double. She got two goals in 2012 and could get two goals here.

:09:14.:09:19.

She goes in the Omnium tonight, the sixth disciplined a event. She has

:09:20.:09:23.

two more events to go, concluding with the lap race, 160 laps around

:09:24.:09:30.

the circuit, you pick up points for each sprint. If she wins I will

:09:31.:09:35.

explain it later but she leads in that Omnium now. Jason Kenny also

:09:36.:09:40.

going in the velodrome for the men, he could pick up old as well, so it

:09:41.:09:47.

has already been a very good games for Great Britain. Not many teams do

:09:48.:09:53.

well having hosted a games previously, they always have a

:09:54.:09:58.

drop-off, Great Britain are doing better here than they did in London

:09:59.:10:01.

and that has taken many people by surprise. It's because they are

:10:02.:10:07.

getting bonus medals from people like Amy Tinkler injured Gnostics

:10:08.:10:11.

today, picking up medals were perhaps did not think they would get

:10:12.:10:16.

one, Justin Rose was another bonus in golf which date did not rely

:10:17.:10:22.

upon. The medal table is looking good for Britain, and the US, the

:10:23.:10:29.

Chinese did not do so well in diving but could pick up a few more

:10:30.:10:35.

tonight. One man we have not mentioned is Jamaica and Usain Bolt.

:10:36.:10:40.

That is tomorrow. The people who organised this have been canny, runs

:10:41.:10:47.

on Sunday, has a day off, runs on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday,

:10:48.:10:54.

Friday, Saturday, he is in the Olympic Stadium every day bar one.

:10:55.:11:00.

He went in the heats of the 200 metres this morning and the shock is

:11:01.:11:03.

that he came 16th. Should we be worried? Not at all, it was a stroll

:11:04.:11:10.

in the park, he only had to come in the top two in his heat. Justin

:11:11.:11:16.

Gatlin got through as well, Andre the grass won the fastest time for

:11:17.:11:22.

colour. But Usain Bolt looked very good indeed, but he looked very good

:11:23.:11:28.

in front of many empty seats. I'm sorry to mention it but it's not

:11:29.:11:33.

what you want to see or what you expect to see at an Olympics, this

:11:34.:11:38.

specially when Usain Bolt is in the house. Yes, that is extraordinary.

:11:39.:11:45.

Enjoy the velodrome and BBC will check in with you again.

:11:46.:11:46.

Let's have a look at the medal table.

:11:47.:11:48.

In the lead is the USA with 27 gold medals,

:11:49.:11:52.

In the lead is the USA with 28 gold medals,

:11:53.:11:58.

Britain has increased its tally to 17. Also has hopes of adding three

:11:59.:12:06.

more in the cycling velodrome over the next hour. China remains in

:12:07.:12:10.

third with 15 gold medals. Russia, with its depleted team

:12:11.:12:12.

of athletes, is still Now let's move to one of the most

:12:27.:12:28.

you pick up that makes a difference - it's also what time

:12:29.:12:31.

that virus infects you. A study showed that viruses

reporter James Gallagher We're up and active now but most

if they figure it out, how can it help doctors

or researchers try and figure out There are two big ideas here,

:13:22.:13:25.

the first is if we can figure out what times of day people are more

vulnerable to infections, if we have some really big

:13:33.:13:34.

global health scare, things that have happened before

:13:35.:13:37.

like swine flu, bird flu, viruses that go around the world,

:13:38.:13:40.

maybe we can try to make sure people aren't out

:13:41.:13:43.

and about at those times of day. Maybe you could delay school

:13:44.:13:45.

openings so that kids aren't around that time of day, so

:13:46.:13:51.

these are all untested. The other big finding is people

:13:52.:13:54.

who do shift work have a disruptive body clock, their bodies don't

:13:55.:13:58.

really know what time of day it is, so they are vulnerable to infections

:13:59.:14:01.

all the time and one idea is they become added

business in just a moment. We'll hear from the boss of one

:14:11.:14:22.

of France's best known champagne houses, about his plans to make

:14:23.:14:25.

sparkling wine here in the UK. Inflation rose more than expected

:14:26.:14:37.

last month to 0.6%, according to the Office for National

Statistics. It was pushed up by an increase

in the cost of fuel Separate figures out today suggest

the fall in the value of the pound since the UK's referendum vote

:14:44.:14:47.

to leave the EU has increased the cost of

:14:48.:14:50.

imports for manufacturers. Inflation is likely to be

:14:51.:15:11.

three-and-a-half times that profit. We have to re-engineer our offer,

:15:12.:15:16.

we have to pass on a big part of that inflation to

:15:17.:15:19.

our customers. We need invitation to mop to around

The British radical Islamic cleric Anjem Choudary has been

:15:43.:15:45.

convicted of inviting support for the so-called Islamic State.

:15:46.:15:53.

Now let's take a look at what our language services are working on.

:15:54.:15:58.

Chinese scientists say they have launched a satellite capable

:15:59.:16:00.

of sending secure messages that are impossible to hack.

:16:01.:16:02.

It will transmit the data in bursts of sub-atomic particles that

:16:03.:16:05.

Any attempt at eavesdropping will cause them to self-destruct.

The former president of Fifa, Joao Havelange, has died

:16:09.:16:18.

The Brasilian helped turn the World Cup into

:16:19.:16:21.

The last towers of the iconic Riviera Hotel and Casino

:16:22.:16:26.

The property had more than 2000 rooms and featured in several films.

:16:27.:16:31.

You can see those pictures again on the BBC News app.

:16:32.:16:42.

Daniel Rye is a Danish photographer who was held by so-called

:16:43.:16:44.

Islamic State for 13 months in Syria.

:16:45.:16:46.

He writes about how he was tortured, and held with other hostages

:16:47.:16:51.

He was release in June 2014 after his family raised

:16:52.:17:00.

He's also an accomplished gymnast - something his captors asked him

:17:01.:17:05.

to demonstrate to prove he wasn't a spy.

:17:06.:17:07.

He told the BBC's Victoria Derbyshire programme

:17:08.:17:08.

I was pretty sure I would never be able to come home alive

:17:09.:17:23.

after what they had basically started doing with me.

:17:24.:17:25.

My family and friends should not witness me being executed

:17:26.:17:31.

in a video or whatever, so I might as well,

:17:32.:17:33.

And after that, they made sure that I could not do that again,

:17:34.:17:40.

even though I wanted to for a long time.

:17:41.:18:12.

It was the fact we were people together for the even though

:18:13.:18:16.

sometimes we hated each other more than anything because we were in

:18:17.:18:19.

a small room, it kept us sane, the thing which helped us.

:18:20.:18:21.

I tried to take my own life after two weeks in captivity.

:18:22.:18:24.

If I had been together whether a person, that person might

:18:25.:18:27.

Like, the first thing I was thinking was finally me.

:18:28.:18:45.

I felt so ashamed about the feeling I just had.

:18:46.:18:48.

Because, you know, we had this thing that we wanted to leave together.

:18:49.:18:51.

We had this idea that when we're going to be released,

:18:52.:18:53.

we are going to the hotel and we are eating everything

:18:54.:18:56.

from the buffets and having long showers and we just imagines how

:18:57.:18:59.

we would experience this release together.

:19:00.:19:00.

Ford has said they plan to offer a fully automated

:19:01.:19:04.

And they've partnered up with some other companies to do it.

:19:05.:19:08.

Let's talk to Samira Hussain in New York to find out more.

:19:09.:19:12.

Tell us more about this car. We don't have too many details on the

:19:13.:19:22.

cars themselves but for wanted to get out in front and say they are

:19:23.:19:28.

investing heavily in autonomous driving and they have said they will

:19:29.:19:33.

create an autonomous car so it will not have a steering wheel and not

:19:34.:19:37.

have any foot pedals and what it will mainly be fought is these

:19:38.:19:42.

rights sharing apps, so things like Hueber and that is where they are

:19:43.:19:46.

concentrating their efforts when they talk about driverless cars,

:19:47.:19:52.

their first point of entry in terms of autonomous cars will be getting

:19:53.:19:57.

them to these kinds of rights sharing companies. Who buys a

:19:58.:20:07.

working to it happen? Quite a few companies but what is important to

:20:08.:20:11.

highlight is the kind of investment you are seeing from car companies in

:20:12.:20:16.

places like Silicon Valley, so Ford announced today that they will

:20:17.:20:21.

increase its staff in Silicon Valley by 300 people. This comes after

:20:22.:20:28.

other big American auto makers that are investing not necessarily in

:20:29.:20:34.

traditional areas like the state of Michigan but out west where there is

:20:35.:20:39.

a lot of computer technology, General Motors has also done

:20:40.:20:45.

something similar and set up shop there, so you were seeing that car

:20:46.:20:50.

companies are seeing that this is where the money is, where the trend

:20:51.:20:54.

is, towards striver less technology and bread that you need the software

:20:55.:20:59.

for people to do that, which is why you see so many of them beef up

:21:00.:21:01.

operations out West. Thank you. British phone retailer Tuffphones

:21:02.:21:05.

has unveiled a new hard-wearing handset aimed at surviving some

:21:06.:21:07.

pretty extreme treatment. It's the latest addition to a range

:21:08.:21:11.

of extra-strong devices. Zoe Kleinman took it

:21:12.:21:14.

for a test - along with some Rugged phones are supposed to be

:21:15.:21:29.

waterproof for 30 minutes, so let's try the bucket test. In goes the

:21:30.:21:40.

phone. And the cat phone. And the latest Samsung.

:21:41.:22:02.

They also need to be dust-proof, so let's see how they get on any cement

:22:03.:22:16.

mixer full of sand. In goes to CAT phone, and in goes the tough phone.

:22:17.:22:30.

The cheaper Tuffphone is a bit scratched but still working and they

:22:31.:22:37.

CAT is as good as new. This smartphone market is enormous and in

:22:38.:22:44.

the context of that it is very small but it's the long-term smartphone

:22:45.:22:50.

market. Who by aimed at? The construction industry wants devices

:22:51.:22:55.

that last longer but there is weekend adventurers, people who like

:22:56.:22:59.

the idea of living a rugged lifestyle, you can put your phone on

:23:00.:23:03.

a table in the pub after being out on your bike. Time for one more

:23:04.:23:13.

test, the big drop. I didn't like the sound of that smash, but let's

:23:14.:23:19.

see if it still works. I will see if I can phone home.

:23:20.:23:32.

It works. Let's move on to champagne.

:23:33.:23:41.

One of the best known French champagne houses is moving

:23:42.:23:43.

into the English sparkling wine business.

:23:44.:23:45.
