Neither Glitter nor his solicitor would say where the sex offender plans to live now he has reluctantly returned to Britain.

Glitter, 64, has three days to give police his permanent address, but officers are thought to be aware of his current whereabouts.

The shamed singer, who still earns royalties for past hits such as I'm the Leader of the Gang (I am), was said to be reluctant to return to the UK although his solicitor said he was pleased to be back.

After he was freed from a Vietnamese prison after serving two years and nine months of a three-year sentence for sex crimes involving girls aged 10 and 11, Glitter flew to Bangkok where he was due to board a flight to London.

Saying he felt ill, Glitter refused but Thai authorities would not allow him through passport control and he eventually flew to Hong Kong.

Chinese authorities also refused him entry and he flew back to Bangkok where Thai police and immigration officials insisted he return to Britain.

He arrived at Heathrow's Terminal 3 and stayed there while his solicitor David Corker went to Uxbridge Magistrates' Court, west London, as Scotland Yard successfully applied for an order requiring him to register as a sex offender.

Mr Corker opposed the order saying Glitter - real name Paul Gadd - had been subjected to an "unfair trial" in Vietnam.

But district judge David Simpson said the former star had "demonstrated his desire to avoid the jurisdiction of this court" and agreed the order. He said Glitter must sign on as a sex offender within three days. The order will last indefinitely but he has 21 days in which to appeal.
