Former glam rocker and convicted child molester Gary Glitter will be deported back to Britain on Tuesday after being released from prison in Vietnam, his lawyer said.

Glitter, whose real name is Paul Francis Gadd, was convicted of obscene acts with children in March 2006 and sentenced to three years in prison. The incidents involved two Vietnamese girls, aged 10 and 11, from the southern coastal city of Vung Tau.

"Police booked his ticket from Ho Chi Minh City to London and I have already paid for the ticket on his behalf," his lawyer Le Thanh Kinh told The Associated Press by telephone Thursday.

Last year authorities cut three months off Glitter's three-year jail sentence for good behavior. He has been serving his term at Thu Duc prison in Binh Thuan province, 87 miles north of Ho Chi Minh City.

Kinh said Glitter told him several months ago he did not want to go back to Great Britain, but Vietnamese law requires he be returned to his home country.

In a recent interview with the Cong An Nhan Dan (People's Police) newspaper, Glitter said he intends to resume his singing career and might move to Singapore or Hong Kong.

Glitter was convicted in Britain in 1999 of possessing child pornography, and served half of a four-month jail term.

He later went to Cambodia but was expelled from that country in 2002, although officials there did not specify a crime or file charges against him.

Glitter hit his musical peak in the 1970s. His crowd-pleasing anthem "Rock and Roll (Part 2)" is still played at many sporting events.
