Poll: Almost half in U.S. creationist
MADRID, Sept. 17 (UPI) -- An al-Jazeera reporter has been taken into custody in Spain for fear he may flee the country after being charged with financing al-Qaida.
The BBC says reporter Tayseer Alouni and another man, Jamal Hussein, were given bail for health reasons.
Verdicts in their case are expected later in September.
Alouni, an al-Jazeera television reporter with Spanish and Syrian citizenship, is accused of giving money to al-Qaida in Afghanistan.
He also is accused of a close relationship with another man on trial, Immad Yarkas, also known as Abu Dahdah.
Yarkas is accused by Spanish authorities of having some role in the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
Alouni denies any wrongdoing.
