LONDON: A jailed extremist Muslim cleric named by Britain's
government as a key influence on one of four men who
carried out the 2005 London transport bombings was
deported to Jamaica Friday, the home secretary said.

Abdullah el-Faisal, a Jamaican-born convert to Islam, was
placed on a flight to Kingston, Jamaica Friday afternoon,
Home Secretary John Reid said. He said el-Faisal was
barred from re-entering Britain.

The cleric was sentenced to nine years jail in 2003 on
charges of incitement to murder and stirring racial hatred
after he urged followers to kill Hindus, Jews and Americans.

El-Faisal, who had his sentence cut to seven years on
appeal, was eligible for parole after serving half his jail
term, and was deported immediately following his release
from prison.
