Bin Laden son-in-law sentenced to life in US
Suleiman Abu Ghaith, a son-in-law of Osama bin Laden, was sentenced to
life in prison on Tuesday in New York following his conviction on
terrorism charges.
A Manhattan federal jury in March found the
Kuwaiti-born 48-year-old guilty of conspiring to kill Americans,
conspiring to provide material support for terrorists and providing such
support.
US District Judge Lewis
Kaplan, addressing Abu Ghaith, said it was his “assessment that you are
committed to doing everything you can to carry out al Qaeda’s agenda to
kill Americans.”
Abu Ghaith, who was arrested in Turkey, is one of
the highest-ranking al Qaeda figures to be brought to the United States
to face a civilian trial. Evidence against him included videos and audio
recordings, prosecutors said.
Abu Ghaith appeared in videos representing al Qaeda after the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks.
