DAILY EXPRESS: A MUSLIM who recruited Islamic extremists and trained five of the July 21 failed bombers has today been convicted after a major trial.

Mohammed Hamid, 50, was found guilty at Woolwich Crown Court of organizing secret terrorist training camps in the New Forest and the Lake District. 



He was also found guilty of encouraging Muslims to murder non-believers.

Three of his followers, Kibley da Costa, 25, Mohammed Al-Figari, 45, and Kader Ahmed, 20, were convicted of attending terror camps in the New Forest and at a Berkshire paintballing centre.

It can also now be revealed that two other members of the gang, Mohammed Kyriacou, 19, and Yassin Mutegombwa, 23, admitted to attending these terrorist camps.
