Disgraced ex-pop star Gary Glitter will be free to travel anywhere in the world after he is released from prison in Vietnam, his lawyer has said.

Glitter, 64, real name Paul Francis Gadd, is due to be deported by Vietnam after being jailed in March 2006 for molesting two girls aged 11 and 12.

Le Thanh Kinh, his lawyer, said Glitter can use his British passport to go anywhere he can get a visa for.

But he added that the former singer wants to return to the UK.

Glitter is expected to leave Thu Duc jail at about noon local time (0600 BST).

His three-year sentence was reduced by three months last year during an annual prisoner amnesty.

The former star is due to be driven under police escort to Tan Son Nhat airport in Ho Chi Minh City.

He is expected to have a ticket to London - but there are no direct flights to the UK, which allows him the option of buying another ticket when he changes planes.

His lawyer said: “He has served his sentence and the authorities in Vietnam will deport him. He does not have any sentence to serve in London. If he wants to stop wherever he wants to he can do that.

Sex offenders register

However, the lawyer said his client told him he wanted to return to the UK, had a ticket to London and was eagerly anticipating his release.

A Foreign Office spokesman said it was “a matter for Mr Gadd and the Vietnamese authorities” where Glitter goes after he is deported.

If he does fly back to the UK, the disgraced star will be met at the airport by police and required to sign the register of sex offenders.

He will then be subject to monitoring and will have to tell the police where he plans to live and if he plans to go abroad.

And he could also face an order prohibiting him from going near children or using the internet.
