THE GUARDIAN: Four men were today found guilty of an extreme Islamist plot to detonate bombs on tube trains and a bus in London on July 21 2005.

Muktar Said Ibrahim, Yassin Omar, Ramzi Mohammed and Hussein Osman were convicted of conspiracy to murder over the failed attack, which aimed to mirror the carnage of two weeks before when on July 7 four suicide bombers killed themselves and 52 other people on public transport around London.

Ibrahim, 29, of Stoke Newington, north London, Omar, 26, of New Southgate, north London and Mohammed, 25, of North Kensington, west London, were found guilty this morning in unanimous verdicts from the jury of nine women and three men at Woolwich crown court.

Osman, 28, of no fixed address, was convicted this afternoon after the trial judge, Mr Justice Fulford QC, told the jurors, who were on their seventh day of deliberations, that he would accept majority verdicts of 10-2 for the remaining defendants.
