Terror suspect dies in custody before US trial
A suspected al-Qaida terrorist charged over the 1998 attacks on embassies in east Africa that killed more than 200 people has died in custody days before his trial was to start in the United States.
Manhattan attorney Preet Bharara says in a court filing that Abu Anas al-Libi, also known as Nazih Abdul-Hamed al-Ruqai, died on Friday from sudden complications "arising out of his long-standing medical problems".
