Tehran - FNA
Ammar al-Baluchi, who was accused of aiding the September 11 attacks, suffered a serious head injury while imprisoned by the CIA, his attorney told a war crimes tribunal. The evidence was presented on Wednesday during the second day of a pre-trial hearing at the Guantanamo Bay detention facility in Cuba for five of the US military’s ‘highest value’ detainees, Reuters reported. Al-Baluchi reportedly suffers ongoing health problems from what he and the other defendants say was torture while he was being held in CIA custody between 2003 and 2006, according to attorney James Connell.
