Gary Glitter (64), aka Paul Francis Gadd, was jailed in March 2006 after he was convicted of molesting two girls aged 10 and 11. His sentence was later reduced for good behavior. Glitter was just released from Thu Duc prison and was immediately driven to Ho Chi Minh City Airport, so he can be deported and flown back to London. Glitter refused to board the plane claiming he had a heart condition. He has been cleared by doctors, and police say they will force him on the plane.

Glitter served time in London on child pornography charges, so London authorities will force him to sign a sex offender agreement when, or if, he arrives. So far he has been hopping from Cuba, to Spain, and Cambodia, who won’t let him back in their country after he was deported in 2003 over alleged sex offences, then to Vietnam. Now he says he might go to Hong Kong or Singapore.

No one wants Glitter in their country, yet he says he wants to start making music again. Read more on Glitter’s pedophile past here.
