[QUOTE="moreluck, post: 1119341, member: 1246"] [b]Re: Bin Laden's son in law[/b] We’ve documented countless examples of money being spent frivolously despite the sequester, and this is where they plan to make cuts? [INDENT][URL="http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2013/04/08/trial-of-osama-bin-ladens-son-in-law-faces-stunning-delay-due-to-sequester-cuts/"](AFP)[/URL] — The highly anticipated New York trial of Osama bin Laden’s son-in-law could be delayed because his court-appointed lawyers have been hit by US budget cuts, they said Monday. Federal Judge Lewis Kaplan called the revelation that a package of US federal government cuts known as the sequester could imperil a start to the trial this year “stunning.” Martin Cohen, an attorney for Sulaiman Abu Ghaith, allegedly a senior propagandist in the Al-Qaeda network, said he doubted he could be ready by Kaplan’s suggested trial date in September. “The lawyers for the federal defenders are to be furloughed for five-and-a-half weeks,” he told a hearing, saying it would be “very difficult to be ready for September.” Cohen suggested a January date for the trial as an alternative. Kaplan said it was “extremely troublesome to contemplate the possibility of a case of this nature being delayed because of sequestration.” [/INDENT] [/QUOTE]
