Three men found guilty of liquid bomb airline plot


Three men were found guilty Monday of plotting to blow up planes on flights between Britain and North America, Woolwich Crown Court in London said. Abdullah Ahmed Ali, Assad Sarwar and Tanwir Hussain were all found guilty of "conspiracy to murder by the detonation of improvised explosive devices on trans-Atlantic aircraft" in a majority verdict of 11 to 1. Five other men were found not guilty of that charge.
It was the second trial of the men arrested in August 2006 on suspicion of plotting to blow up planes with liquid explosives in soft-drink bottles.
