LONDON — A four-year inquiry, which came to a close Tuesday, has exposed a network of alleged British terrorism training camps that prepare recruits for mass murder.

Security officials think that hundreds of men — including a gang that made a failed attempt to bomb London’s transit network — have passed through camps set up across the English countryside.

The two training camp ringleaders — one who claimed to be the “No. 1 al-Qaeda in Europe” and the other who nicknamed himself “Osama bin London” — will be sentenced next month on charges of running the camps and inciting participants to murder. Five others were each sentenced Tuesday to at least 3 1/2 years in prison on charges of attending terrorism training.
