France: Radical imam deported to Egypt


FRANCE today deported to Egypt a radical imam who for months had been inciting followers in Paris area mosques to rise up against the West, the government said.


Described as dangerous, Ali Ibrahim Al-Sudani was detained and sent back to Egypt under an emergency deportation order, Interior Minister Brice Hortefeux said in a statement.


"The secret services had identified this dangerous individual who for the past months had been delivering sermons calling for a fight against the West in several mosques in the Seine-Saint-Denis area,'' said Hortefeux in a statement.


Sudani showed "contempt for our society's values and incited violence'', he added.
