WASHINGTON — The Pentagon says the senior military judge overseeing terror trials at Guantanamo Bay has dropped charges against a suspect in the 2000 USS Cole bombing.
The military charges against suspected al-Qaeda bomber Abd al-Rahim al-Nashiri marked the last active war-crimes case at Guantanamo.
The legal move by Susan Crawford, the top legal authority for military trials at Guantanamo, brings all cases into compliance with President Barack Obama’s executive order to halt all terrorist court proceedings at the U.S. Navy base in Cuba.
