WASHINGTON, Dec. 2 (UPI) -- A U.S. district court judge has been asked to determine if the government is required to turn over exculpatory evidence involving terror suspects.
The Christian Science Monitor reported Tuesday that generally prosecutors must turn over any exculpatory evidence it has uncovered relating to a suspect it is seeking to imprison.
The case before U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan in Washington involves allegations that U.S. intelligence agents secretly sent a man to Morocco for 18 months before sending him to prisons in Afghanistan and then the U.S. terror prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
The newspaper said the case of Binyam Mohamed -- an Ethiopian-born former British resident who is accused of plotting to detonate a radiological bomb in the United States -- centers on a habeas corpus petition challenging the legality of his continued military detention.
