Bin Laden 'Bodyguard' goes before Guantanamo tribunal

Osama bin Laden’s alleged bodyguard and chauffeur today becomes Guantanamo Bay’s first terror suspect brought before a US military commission that allows for secret evidence and no government appeals.

Salim Ahmed Hamdan, a 34-year-old Yemeni, has said he earned a pittance for his family by driving al-Qaida’s leader before the September 11 attacks, but denies supporting terrorism.
