Guantanamo jury decides fate of Bin Laden's videomaker

A jury of US military officers at Guantanamo’s second war-crimes trial reached a verdict that could put Osama bin Laden’s alleged “media secretary” and videomaker in prison for life.

But the decision will not be announced until Monday because Ali Hamza al-Bahlul was already back in his cell when the verdict was reached, said the judge, Air Force Col Ronald Gregory. The judge had told al-Bahlul no announcement would be made in his absence.
