Muktar Said Ibrahim, Yassin Omar and Ramzi Mohammed were convicted of conspiracy to murder at London's Woolwich Crown Court.

Hussain Osman was later convicted of the the same charge.

The jury was then sent home for the night after failing to reach verdicts on Manfo Kwaku Asiedu and Adel Yahya.

The terror cell attempted to detonate hydrogen peroxide and chapatti flour bombs covered in shrapnel on three tube trains and a bus on July 21, 2005.

Their murderous plan only failed at the last moment because of problems with the home-made explosives, hot weather, or mere "good fortune", Woolwich Crown Court heard.

Ibrahim, Omar and Mohammed were unanimously convicted of conspiracy to murder after a sixth month trial. They had claimed the bombs were fake and just a demonstration against the war in Iraq.

Trial judge Mr Justice Fulford QC told the jurors he would accept majority verdicts of 10-2.

The jury reached its partial decision on the seventh day of deliberations.

As the guilty verdicts were read out, Ibrahim, 29, of Stoke Newington, north London, closed his eyes and looked down at his hands. Omar, 26, of New Southgate, north London, and Mohammed, 25, of North Kensington, west London, both stared at the judge.
