THE brother of a terrorist who died in last year's suicide bomb attack at Glasgow airport has been deported to India.
Sabeel Ahmed, 26, a former NHS doctor, was jailed for 18 months for withholding information about the plot.

He pleaded guilty at London's Old Bailey last month but was freed for deportation because of time served on remand.

Ahmed now faces questioning by Indian police investigating a banned Muslim group, the Students' Islamic Movement of India. "It could be a routine investigation," said a senior detective in Bangalore. "We want to examine his role before he left India."

Speaking at the family home, his mother Zakia said Ahmed was exhausted after travelling through the night.

The Old Bailey heard he was sent a chilling e-mail about the mission two days before his older brother Kafeel rammed a jeep into the Glasgow air terminal.
