911 Suspect goes Free

A British court has released a Moroccan held as an alleged conspirator in the September 11 terrorist attacks, citing his detention as arbitrary and unjustified.

Farid Hilali was arrested two years ago after he was named with 34 others as an alleged conspirator in the attacks.

He has been held in British prisons while fighting extradition to Spain.

Spanish authorities had accused him of links to the alleged leader of the al Qaeda cell in Spain.

But last year, Spain's Supreme Court voided his conviction of conspiracy to murder in connection with the attacks.
