Shanita Simmons,
Khadr Arraigned in Military Commissions Hearing
“ Judge Brownback concluded that the prosecution’s presentation of evidence was unnecessary since the CMRC’s ruling allowed the court to presume that personal jurisdiction exists until it is challenged by the defense in future proceedings.Charges against Khadr include murder of a U.S. Soldier and attempted murder of U.S. military or coalition forces by making and planting improvised explosive devices in violation of the law of war. Khadr also faces charges of spying and conspiring with Osama bin Laden and other Al Qaeda members. ”
