A US district court in Santa Ana sentenced a man from California, accused of joining and providing aid to Daesh organization, to 30 years in jail.

Pronouncing the sentencing, Judge David O. Carter said the 25-year-old Nader Elhuzayel showed no regret for his actions and his repeated citing of martyrdom in his talks made him "especially dangerous.", International Business News reported.

Prosecutors had given evidence that proved Elhuzayel's frequent social media communication with Elton Simpson, one of the alleged perpetrators of a failed terrorist attack on a community centre in Garland, Texas, in May 2015.

During the trial, officials produced a video taken in October 2014 that showed Elhuzayel swearing allegiance to Daesh leader, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, and vowing to travel to join the terrorist group to be a fighter for the Jihadi group.

In the proof, Elhuzayel had wrote back to Simpson and said, "I love you for the sake of Allah brother may Allah grant you Jannat al ferdaus [the highest level of Paradise reserved for martyrs]."

According to a press report, more than 70 individuals have been charged in US with trying to travel abroad to enlist with Daesh, with most cases resulting in guilty pleas.
