Attorney: Memo shows flawed analysis led to detention
RICHMOND, Va.. (AP) - A lawyer for a South Carolina prisoner says government recently declassified memos show President Bush acted on a flawed legal analysis when he designated Ali al-Marri to enemy combatant
Al-Marri is a legal U.S. Resident from Qatar. He was arrested in December 2001 in Peoria, Illinois, where he was pursuing a master’s degree at Bradley University.
Al-Marri has been held in a Navy brig in South Carolina since 2003. The 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals is considering whether the government has the right to detain al-Marri, whom the government claims had links to al-Qaida terrorists.
Al-Marri’s lawyer says he would have used the memo to court if it had been available. The Justice Department did not respond immediately to requests for comment.
