Attorneys for Ramzi Binalshibh and Mustafa al-Hawsawisay their clients have “mental disorders”

mustafa-al-hawsawiLet the games begin! Military lawyers for terrorist scums Ramzi Binalshibh, an accused organizer of the 9/11 plot, and Mustafa al-Hawsawi, the conspiracy’s alleged “paymaster”, say their clients have mental disorders that make them unfit for trial, likely caused or exacerbated by years of harsh confinement in CIA custody according to the Wall Street Journal.

The issue already has arisen in military-commission proceedings at the military’s detention facility at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. According to an August ruling by a military judge, prosecutors have made an “apparent concession” that Mr. Binalshibh “suffers from a delusional disorder-persecutory type” disorder. Mr. Binalshibh has been prescribed “a variety of psychotropic medications used to treat schizophrenia and/or bipolar disorder, including Haldol, Abilify, risperidone and Ativan,” according to commission records.
