A racist and antisemitic emailer who targeted Avram Grant at Chelsea FC, Home Secretary David Miliband and the JC, among others, was found guilty of communications offences at Uxbridge Magistrates Court this week.

Maher Khammash, 52, sent racist emails to politicians including Prime Minister Gordon Brown, Foreign Secretary David Miliband, and others including David Cameron. He also targeted organisations including the Football Association, and 54 of his emails were received by the JC.

On Tuesday he was convicted of three charges and given what police described as a large fine and an anti-social behaviour order. He is prohibited from emailing the JC as part of his ASBO.

One email to Avram Grant called Chelsea's Tal Ben Haim a "useless fat donkey of a jewish terrorist (loads of Arab Palestinian Blood on his dirty hands from IDF Brainwashed terrorism)" [sic].
