ANKARA—The British Embassy says a Turkish court has convicted a British man—who has been linked to the Islamic State militant known as "Jihadi John"—of terror offenses.

 

The embassy's press office said Tuesday: "We are aware of the conviction of Aine Lesley Davis of terror offenses in Turkey." It did not elaborate.

 

An official at the court in Silivri on the outskirts of Istanbul could not immediately confirm the conviction.
