This article doesn’t specify what his “anti-Muslim views” were, and strongly implies that the accusation was simply a response to his accusations against the school’s financial director. That illustrates the problem with blasphemy laws that we have seen again and again in Pakistan: they can be and are used to victimize people against whom the accuser has a grudge, or from whom the accuser wishes to steal. Nor does it say to where he was deported. I can’t imagine any country in today’s thoroughly cowed and compromised world today accepting someone expressing “anti-Muslim views”; maybe he was deported to Venus (the Moon and Mars would have rejected him, of course).

The French foreign affairs ministry reportedly called the deporting of Adnani, who has left his family behind in the country, a “compromise solution”.
