From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wikisource has original text related to this article:
On November 7, 2005, the United States charged Guantanamo captive Jabran Said Bin Al Qahtani before a military commission.[1]
In Hamdan v. Rumsfeld, in July 2006, the Supreme Court of the United States ruled that the Bush Presidency lacked the constitutional authority to set up the military commissions. Only Congress had the authority to set up military commissions. Congress subsquently passed the Military Commissions Act of 2006. But, as of September 2007, al Qahtani has not been re-charged.
