Algerian seized with Abu Zubaydah loses habeas case

Miami Herald, by Carol Rosenberg Posted By: goblin- Thu, 24 Sep 2009 20:23:16 GMT GUANTANAMO BAY NAVY BASE, Cuba — A federal judge has upheld as lawful the indefinite detention of an Algerian accused of being an al Qaeda bomb maker, raising the tally of U.S. government victories in Guantanamo habeas corpus lawsuits to eight. In contrast, 30 detainees here have won their challenges since the U.S. Supreme Court established the right of Guantánamo captives to sue for their freedom in June 2008.
