Jury resumes deliberations on bin Laden's driver

A Pentagon jury will consider its a verdict on a former driver and alleged bodyguard for Osama bin Laden today as the US nears completion of its first war crimes trial since the Second World War.

The panel of six American military officers, hand-picked by the US Defence Department, will begin its second day of deliberations at Guantanamo Bay US Navy base in Cuba in the case against Salim Hamdan.
