Trial Ordered for Detainee
Posted: 1:43 PM Jul 1, 2010

A judge has ruled that a Guantanamo Bay detainee awaiting trial in a New York civilian court is trying to hinder his prosecution by claiming he suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder.
U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan said Thursday he has concluded that Ahmed Khalfan Ghailani does not suffer from the disorder.
A psychologist testified several weeks ago that Ghailani suffered from the disorder. It was said to be a result of treatment he received during interrogations at a secret CIA-run camp overseas after his 2004 arrest.
Ghailani was moved from the CIA camp to Guantanamo in Cuba in 2006. He is awaiting trial in the August 1998 bombings of two U.S. embassies in Africa that killed 224 people, including 12 Americans
