Terror suspect Abid Naseer held on US warrant
Source: BBC News

The alleged leader of an al-Qaeda plot to bomb British targets who won the right to stay in the UK, has been arrested.

Abid Naseer was held after the United States issued a warrant for his arrest.

A special immigration court had said Mr Naseer, 23, was an al-Qaeda operative - but could not be deported because he faced torture or death in Pakistan.

He was arrested last year as part of a massive counter-terrorism operation in Liverpool and Manchester.

I have a feeling he may now wish he had returned to Pakistan.
