(THE LOCAL FRANCE) — A jogger from Normandy in northern France has been jailed for six-months after a court took a dim view of him choosing to go running wearing a football shirt bearing the name “Bin Laden” on the back.

The 34-year-old man, named Chakib Limane, was convicted of glorifying terrorism by a criminal court in the town of Caen, Le Paisien newspaper reported.

The man was first arrested in June when he was spotted wearing the Barcelona shirt with the name “Bin Laden” on the back in a shop in the town centre and worried security staff phoned the police.
