Слух Guantanamo начинает для Hicks
Среда 27-ое март 2007
Австралийский detainee на заливе Guatanamo в Кубе был первым пленником, котор держат, что на военной базе США посмотрел prosecution под откорректированными правилами трибунала США воинскими.
Водитель кенгуруа 31 year-old бывший и новообращенный к мусульманству будут первым detainee, котор нужно прийти прежде чем откорректированный воинский трибунал созданный съездом США после верховного суда в прошлом году считал вариант пентагона более предыдущий неконституционно. Hicks обвинено воевать для al-Qaeda в Афганистане во время нашествия Нас-водить в конце 2001. Он первоначально был поручен с военными преступления и конспирацияом поручить убийство, но теперь смотрит на более менее специфически обязанность обеспечивать материальную поддержку для террорисма. Группы прав человека рецензировали трибунал говоря процесс нуждается правовых гарантиях, пока злодеяние с которым Hicks поручено даже не существовало когда он был захващен в 2001. Дело мольбы Казаться перед трибуналом для инициала частью arraignment его пробы, Hicks отложил вход мольбы. Более раньше его австралийский законовед, Дэвид McLeod, сказал Hicks было убежено он не получит справедливый суд и не управляло делом для того чтобы признать виновное если он получил бы его домашн более скоро. McLeod сказанное там было обсуждениями о потенциальном согласовании мольбы под Hicks признало бы виновное in return for уменьшенное предложение. Австралия соглашалась дело с США позволили бы Hicks служить его предложение в Австралии если он осужен. Слух
Но вместо судья, морская колонка Ральф сказанное Kohlmann, 2 вольнонаемным законоведам, включая юрист воення ведомство, не было утвержено представить его. Были приказаны, что вышли 2 таблица обороны когда Hicks сказало он не установит для их будучи как законные консультанты. One of the lawyers, Joshua Dratel, said he refused to sign an agreement to abide by tribunal rules because he was concerned the provisions do not allow him to meet with his client in private. The US military flew Hicks’ father and sister to the base and allowed them to meet privately with him in the court building before the hearing started. Hicks has previously appeared before an earlier military tribunal system created by a presidential order, which the US supreme court later ruled unconstitutional. Last year the US congress, then under a Republican majority, passed a law authorising a reconstituted tribunal regime with some adjustments but still operating outside of regular US courts or military courts-martial. The commission law permits hearsay, evidence obtained through “coercion”, to be admitted to the case, and bars detainees from appealing their detention in US courts. Coercion Hicks’ lawyers and human rights monitors observing the hearings say the trials are rigged to ensure convictions and allow the information obtained through coercion. Hicks is not accused of involvement in the September 11 attacks on New York and Washington DC and Human Rights Watch has said he could easily be tried in a regular US court. Speaking to reporters before Monday’s arraignment hearing, Air Force Colonel Morris Davis, the chief prosecutor for the tribunals, said prosecution planned to prove Hicks had provided “support for the al-Qaeda organisation”. Davis admitted critics had effectively turned public opinion against the Guantanamo tribunals but said he expected that to change once the military begins presenting evidence. “I recognize that around the world, ‘Guantanamo,’ when you say the word, has a negative connotation,” he said. “One thing I hope is that in the way we conduct these proceedings, maybe we can change some of those attitudes.” http://english.aljazeera.net/NR/exeres/ECF0AF19-25A5-448E-8EE7-750C03F4B95E.htm Have Your Say: Guantanamo hearing begins for Hicks Please read our posting guidelines before posting.
