BANGALORE, India (Reuters) - An Indian doctor who was jailed in Britain for withholding information about planned car bomb attacks in London and Glasgow has returned to India but will now face questioning by local police, an officer said.

Sabeel Ahmed, 26, arrived in Bangalore on Thursday escorted by two British policemen, after serving 270 days in jail in Britain.

He is the younger brother of Kafeel Ahmed, an engineer, who drove a jeep into the Glasgow airport terminal building on June 30 last year and set it alight. Kafeel died later in hospital from 90 percent burns.

Police later arrested Sabeel Ahmed after learning that he was sent an e-mail with details of the attacks from his brother before he drove the jeep to Glasgow airport.
