The military judge throws the confession of the cases of September 11 as obtained by torture

Friday, a military judge threw the confession that a man accused of conspiracy in the September 11 attacks made to federal agents in 2007 in Guantánamo Bay, judging declarations was the product of a campaign of torture and isolation carried out by the CIA

The decision of Colonel Matthew N. McCall was the last setback for prosecutors in their long -standing quest aimed at translating the case of the death penalty, despite the years the five accused had spent in secret CIA prisons.

Ammar al-Baluchi, 47, was so deeply conditioned psychologically by abuse and threats during his stay in prisons abroad of the agency, or black sites, from 2003 to 2006 that he was involuntarily incriminated in 2007, wrote the judge in a decision of 111 pages.

Baluchi, who is charged in the case by the name of Ali Abdul Aziz Ali, is accused of having sent money and providing another support for some of the air pirates who led the attack that killed nearly 3,000 people on September 11, 2001.

He is the nephew of Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, the man accused of having certified the attack. Mr. Mohammed and two other defendants of the case concluded agreements to advocate with prosecutors who are now disputed before the Federal Court. A fifth accused was found mentally unfit to be judged, a condition that his lawyer blames his torture in the hands of the CIA

Testimonies derived from CIA documents have shown that Mr. Baluchi was regularly maintained naked and beaten during his first days of agency guard in an “improved interrogation” program, which was designed by two Psychologists on CIA at the CIA
