Ethiopian-born Hamdi Issac, also known as Osman Hussain, left Rome's
Ciampino airport around midday Thursday, for London One of the
suspected bombers in the failed July 21 attacks on London's transport
system is being extradited from Italy to Britain.







Hamdi Issac, escorted by Italian penitentiary police, arrives at Rome
airport ThursdayA plane carrying Ethiopian-born Hamdi Issac, also
known as Osman Hussain, left Rome's Ciampino airport around midday
Thursday, for London.

Italian police arrested the British citizen in Rome a week after the
July 21 attacks, which caused no fatalities but brought chaos to
London two weeks after suicide bombers killed 52 people in the British
capital.

Hamdi Issac has admitted to taking part in the second set of attacks
but has said the action was meant to scare people, not kill them.

Italy's highest court upheld his extradition order on September 13.
