Lawyers for Qatada also confirmed they would take his fight against deportation back to Europe if the Special Immigration Appeals Commission (Siac) rules against him in October or November. Edward Fitzgerald QC, representing Qatada, told a central London hearing: "There can be no question of deportation being imminent." Qatada was not present for today's hearing, which is deciding whether he should be granted bail. Qatada, described by a judge as Osama bin Laden's right-hand man in Europe, is having an application for bail heard by a senior immigration judge in London. The radical cleric is being held in a high-security prison while he fights deportation to Jordan over terror charges.
