Abu Hamza, the radical hook-handed cleric, has been found guilty on terrorism charges by a New York court.
A jury delivered their verdicts in 11 criminal counts, including assisting Yemeni militants who took a group of Western tourists hostage in 1998.
The jury also returned a guilty verdict on charges of sending followers to Oregon to establish a training camp and to Afghanistan to assist al-Qaeda and the Taliban.
Hamza, whose real name is Mustafa Kamel Mustafa, looked straight ahead as the verdict was read.
He now faces a possible life sentence in the federal “supermax” high-security prison in Colorado that already houses several other convicted terrorists. A judge will sentence him at a later date.
