Al-Qaida interview questionec
in case of 9/11 terror suspect
By Larry Margasak
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — A federal
judge gave terrorism suspect
Zacarias Moussaoui the right to
question a senior al-Qaida cap
tive in a closed-circuit hookup
but the government says the
judge cannot legally do so,
according to a Justice
Department pleading released
Wednesday.
The order would be a boon to
terrorism defendants if allowed
to stand and would pennit judges
“a breathtaking right” to micro
manage the fight against terror
ism, the government told the 4th
U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals,
which is based in Richmond, Va.
The written brief was filed
under seal March 14.
Moussaoui, who is representing
himself, has acknowledged that
he is an al-Qaida loyalist but
denies charges that he was a
Sept. 11,2001, conspirator.
Government sources have
identified the captive as Ramzi
Binalshibh, a suspected coordi
nator of the Sept. 11 attacks.
Moussaoui argues that
Binalshibh — whose name was
removed from the public docu
ment — can show that
Moussaoui was not part of the
plot.
U.S. District Judge Leonie
Brinkema ruled in late January
that Moussaoui could question
the witness with a brief time
delay, allowing the court to pre
vent transmission of questions
the court deems impermissible.
Moussaoui is in the Alexandria,
Va., detention center, near the
district court.
In addition to that ruling,
Brinkema has questioned
whether Moussaoui could
receive a fair trial in open court
because the government has
withheld so much information
from him.
Direct questioning of an
enemy combatant in the midst of
the terrorism fight is beyond the
court’s powers and would inter
fere with an intelligence interro-
Indeed, it would
give terrorist
defendants a

to frustrate

gation, the government said.
‘‘Indeed, it would give terror
ist defendants a powerful
weapon to frustrate the execu
tive’s efforts in the struggle with
al-Qaida,” the government said,
while ensuring the abandonment
of prosecutions in the United
States.
The government contended
that Brinkema failed to consider
alternatives to providing
Moussaoui with direct access to
Binalshibh, including a govern
ment statement summarizing the
captive’s now-classified respons
es to interrogators.
The appeals court has sched
uled closed oral arguments
June 3, but signaled that itwi
ed a compromise on the acts
question. The court
Brinkema to invite the govern
ment to propose alternate
before the hearing, and she b
done so.
A separate government te
opposed a motion by media ref
resentatives that the a:
court open the hearing at:
release some records now i:
under secrecy.
The right of public acces
substantially outweighed by!
need to protect classified infu
mation, the prosecutors sa;;
adding there was no practica
way to divide oral argue
between classified and unefe
tied portions.
The government si:
Brinkema ruled from the beK
on access to the al-QaidacaptM
announcing she did not tins
“there's any way that thiscn
can adequately balance the lea:
imate concerns of the defeixk
without the video deposition."
Later, the government si;
Brinkema rejected the possi
ity of substitutions by state
the government did not p
pose any.
Moussaoui also seeks it
interview Khalid Shai
Mohammed, a captive who:

mind. Only access
Binalshibh is believed tot*
before the appeals court.
If the government believes
is necessary to abandon theprei
edition, it could send thecaseii
Moussaoui — a French cilia
— to a military tribunal, wii
could operate in greater sectet)
NEWS IN BRIEF
Drinking, motorcycle crashes
lead to large number of deaths
WASHINGTON (AP) — Traffic deaths last year were
at the highest level since 1990, with more people
dying in drunken-driving and motorcycle crashes.
In all, 42,850 people died — 1.7 percent more
than the year before — the government said
Wednesday. Alcohol-related deaths rose 3 percent
to 17,970, the third straight increase after a decade
of decline.
"It is painfully clear that recent public and polit
ical complacency is taking its toll on precious
lives," said Wendy Hamilton, president of Mothers
Against Drunk Driving.
The group wants states to pass stiffer penalties
for repeat offenders and approve primary seatk,
laws, which allow police officers to stop a (i
because they suspect the driver is not buckledap
Less stringent laws allow seat belt charges o(il|i
a motorist is pulled over for another infraction.
Only 18 states and the District of Columbia!*
primary seat belt laws, according to Advocates!
Highway and Auto Safety.
Fifty-nine percent of those killed last year was
not wearing seat belts.
"States have to take it on - they hold
cards," said Jeffrey Runge, head of the N
Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
Motorcycle fatalities rose for the fifth conseffl
tive year, to 3,276, the most since 1990. That com
pares with a low of 2,116 in 1997.
