The extensive restrictions that will be placed on a far-right extremist who called hoax bomb threats at hotels housing migrants have been revealed.

The National Crime Agency has published its latest list of ancillary orders, used to support the lifetime management of serious criminals and prevent future offending.

Ancillary orders include Serious Crime Prevention Orders, Slavery and Trafficking Prevention Orders, Financial Reporting Orders and Travel Restriction Orders.

Designed to frustrate criminality, the orders not only limit opportunities for criminals to engage in illegal activity, but also make offenders less attractive to organised crime gangs looking to re-recruit or work with them after they have served prison sentences.

One convicted criminal made subject to such an order is Marco Gill, formerly of Alden Close, Helmshore.

He was jailed for four years in April after making fake bomb threats to hotels, harassing Hope Not Hate founder Nick Lowles, and trying to buy a handgun online from America.

The gun he ordered, a .38 calibre Smith & Wesson, was intercepted by US security services and replaced with a fake, with surveillance equipment also included, before the package was opened by Gill.

The 20-year-old was also found to have far-right ideology and images on his computer, including information about fascist political group Britain First.

Gill’s hoax calls caused hotel staff in Nottingham, Rotherham and near Heathrow serious fear resulting in major disruption, with bomb squads being scrambled as a result.

He was handed a five-year serious crime prevention order on sentencing, which will be triggered upon his release, with Judge Neil Flewitt saying he “poses a high risk of serious harm” to the public.

Now, the NCA has published details of the order, which includes a ban on Gill importing goods to the UK.

He has also had restrictions placed on him regarding communication devices and having virtual currency accounts, and also on having specialist tools or equipment.

He must notify police of any communication devices or changes in relation to the order, and is also not allowed to contact his victims.

Alison Abbott, head of the NCA’s Prison and Lifetime Management Unit, said: “Many career criminals believe themselves to be beyond the reach of the law, and return to lives of organised crime once they leave prison.

“Ancillary orders allow us to monitor their activity, manage their behaviour and prevent future offending through a wide variety of means.

“Part of the power of these orders is that they make offenders toxic to other criminals – the very fact that they are being monitored makes it risky for other criminals to engage with them. 

“Here at the NCA, we use all the tools available to us to protect the public from serious and organised crime.”
