                   3 British Muslims Convicted in Terror Plot

   Three British Muslims accused of plotting a string of attacks have been
   convicted and face the possibility of life in prison.
   A London jury found 31-year-old Irfan Naseer, 27-year-old Irfan Khalid
   and 27-year-old Ashik Ali guilty of planning terrorist attacks.
   The three were arrested during a series of raids in September 2011 that
   also resulted in the capture of nine other suspects.
   Prosecutors said the three men were the plot`s ringleaders and were
   trying to carry out a series of bombings bigger than the July 2005
   attacks on London`s transit system that killed 52 people.
   Prosecutors also said the three had been inspired by the sermons of
   U.S.-born Muslim cleric Anwar al-Awlaki. Awlaki was killed by a drone
   strike in Yemen the same month the suspects were arrested.
