BBC - Acquittal of 9/11 suspect upheld (Germany)
Last Updated: Thursday, 9 June, 2005, 10:28 GMT 11:28 UK

Germany's federal appeals court has upheld the acquittal of Abdelghani Mzoudi, a Moroccan who was accused of links to the 11 September attacks.

He was acquitted in February 2004 of charges that he helped the 11 September 2001 hijackers who attacked the US.

The appeals court ruled on Thursday that there was insufficient evidence to justify a retrial.

Hamburg authorities still want to expel Mr Mzoudi from Germany. But his lawyers say the asylum option is still open.
