A Virginia man was sentenced on Friday to 102 months in prison for conspiring to provide material support to the Islamic State and for attempting to travel to Syria to join the terrorist organization.

Joseph Hassan Farrokh, 29, colluded with another man to join the Islamic State together. Both men agreed Farrokh would travel first and the other man would follow him on a later day. According to the Department of Justice, the men spoke in detail about their travel and the various routes they intended to pursue to Syria. The other man, Mahmoud Amin Elhassan, was indicted in May.
