German 9/11 trial verdict postponed

excerpt:

The prosecution asked to call an Iranian secret agent, to help shore up its case, chief defence attorney Gul Pinar told Deutsche Presse-Agentur dpa.

The witness allegedly warned US authorities ahead of the 9/11 attacks, Pinar said. In addition, he is expected to tell the court that al Qaeda operatives have threatened to kill the Hamburg trial defendant for having "collaborated" with German investigators.

BBC NEWS: "New evidence halts 9/11 verdict"


ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Mr Mzoudi admits knowing the hijackers but not their plans


A German court has agreed to allow a new prosecution witness in the trial of an 11 September suspect which appeared to have all but crumbled last month.

The dramatic move has delayed the verdict in the case of Abdelghani Mzoudi which was expected this week.

Mr Mzoudi, 31, is accused of being an accessory to the murder of more than 3,000 in the 2001 attacks on America and membership of a terrorist group.

The Moroccan national was freed after new evidence cast doubt over the case."
