HeadlineJul 08, 2005

A lawyer for a Canadian believed to be among the youngest prisoners at the Guantanamo Prison Camp argued Thursday that the teenager should not be forced to undergo further interrogation by Canadian authorities. The prisoner is now 18 and was captured in 2002. He is accused of killing an American medic in Afghanistan. A lawyer for the Canadian government said he has provided useful information and Canadian investigators should be allowed to continue questioning him.
