Al Qaeda Terrorist Convicted on Terror Charges in US Court

Al Qaeda terrorist and radical London-based Islamist cleric Abu Hamza al-Masri has been found guilty on multiple charges of terrorism in a US court, BBC News reports Monday night. 

Prosecutors at the court in New York said Hamza – who was tried as Mustafa Kamel Mustafa – assisted the kidnappers of 16 tourists in Yemen in 1998 and attempted to build a terrorist training camp in Oregon.

Hamza is also infamous for his activities in London, where prosecutors say he tried to build a foreign base for Islamist activities, using the mosque as a religious cover. 

Hamza was convicted on eleven criminal counts, according to the Telegraph – and now faces the possibility of being sent to the “Supermax” maximum-security prison in Colorado, famous for housing other terrorists.

The jury, eight women and four men, gave the verdict just blocks away from the September 11, 2001 attacks.

A judge will sentence him at a yet-unannounced date.
