A Jordanian court Thursday acquitted radical cleric Abu Qatada of charges of conspiracy to bomb an American school in the late 1990s, state media reported.
Qatada, whose real name is Omar Othman, was also charged with a 2000 attempt to bomb millennium celebrations in Jordan. He will remain in jail pending a verdict on that case, according to Petra news agency.
It did not say why he was found not guilty in the American school case.
The cleric was deported from the United Kingdom last year, ending a years-long legal battle to force him to leave the country.
