LONDON (Reuters) - Britain has delayed a decision on whether to extradite a computer expert wanted by the United States to face charges of funding Islamic militants, the man's campaign group said on Friday.

Ahmad, 30, is a British citizen held in jail since August last year under a U.S. warrant. He was indicted in the U.S. for running a Web site that raised funds for Muslim militants in Afghanistan and Chechnya.
On May 17 a British court ruled Ahmad would receive a fair trial in the U.S. after the U.S. embassy promised he would not be sent to the prison camp in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, or turned over to a third country for torture.

"The defendant is a British subject who is alleged to have committed offences that, if the evidence were available, could have been prosecuted in this country," {the judge} said.
However, under new British legislation passed in 2003, the United States can seek Ahmad's extradition without having to present any evidence to a British court.
