 A Moroccan court has granted bail to two former inmates of the US detention camp at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and adjourned the start of their trial on terrorism-related charges to 4 July. The two men, Muhammad Mazuz and Ibrahim Binshakrun, were among five people handed over to the Moroccan authorities by the United States on 1 August last year. The other three, who are due to face terrorism-related charges in the same trial, were freed on bail last December. They are Abd Allah Tabarak, Muhammad Uzar and Ridwan Shakkuri. At Monday's hearing the Rabat criminal court said it was adjourning the trial at the request of the defence. The five face charges of "support for a criminal group by transferring money to Moroccans to create a gang that threatens Morocco's interests" and assistance in forging passports. |
