“A U.S. military jury sentenced Osama bin Laden’s driver Thursday to just 5 1/2 years in prison, a surprise rebuke to Pentagon prosecutors who portrayed him as a member of the al-Qaida leader’s inner circle worthy of a life sentence. Salim Hamdan, with credit for time served, will be eligible for release in less than five months, though U.S. authorities still insist they could hold him indefinitely without charge at Guantanamo.” (08/07/08) Link: http://www.sunherald.com/395/story/734476.html Filed under: RRND News | Report Bad Link Bookmark this post in Furl or Del.icio.us | |
