<p>The segregation of two high-profile Islamic terrorist prisoners accused of intimidating and bullying other prisoners over matters of faith has been upheld as lawful by the High Court.</p>
<p>Ricin plot conspirator Kamel Bourgass and &#8220;liquid bomber&#8221; Tanvir Hussain both claimed their human rights were violated when they were put in segregation units for extended periods.</p>
<p>But Mr Justice Irwin, sitting in London on Friday, rejected their claims that they had been treated unlawfully and unfairly.</p>
<p>The judge said the procedures adopted to place them in, and keep them in, segregation did not breach their common law rights, or their rights under Article 6 of the European Convention on Human Rights, to fair treatment.</p>
<p>In both cases, segregation followed allegations that the men were trying to influence and dictate the beliefs of other prisoners. They denied the accusations.</p>
<p>Prison authorities considered it was necessary to separate them from other inmates &#8220;for good order and discipline&#8221;.</p>
<p>The judge said Bourgass was accused of attempting to exert control over other prisoners, especially fellow Muslims whom he &#8220;pressurised&#8221; to attend prayers.</p>
<p>He was reported to have told them &#8220;when and how to pray and what to eat and read&#8221;, was suspected of being involved in organising an assault on one prisoner who needed 50 stitches to his face, and had also attempted to persuade fellow inmates &#8220;not to speak to staff &#8211; especially female staff&#8221;.</p>
<p>Bourgass denied the allegations and said he had never been involved in bullying or trying to convert non-believers to Islam.</p>
<p>In the Hussain case, the judge said security intelligence suggests he had preached his interpretation of Islamic ideals through his cell window, and that interpretation was &#8220;in line with his terrorist beliefs and conviction&#8221;.</p>
