Turkey Clears Qadi of Links With Al-Qaeda |
2005-03-20 |
![]() Al-Qadi's name was, in October 2004, added to the UN's list of persons suspected of financing terrorism at the insistence of the United States. Reacting to the Turkish decision, Al-Qadi said he was extremely pleased that truth had prevailed. He felt that the Turkish investigation was the first truly objective inquiry into the allegations linking him with Al-Qaeda that had surfaced in the aftermath of the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. Regarding a similar US case against him, he urged the US authorities to deal with it in a similarly objective fashion and to have the courage to admit that its allegations against him are entirely wrong. |
