Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly has denied a habeas petition from Guantanamo detainee Fayiz Mohammed Ahmed Al Kandari (ISN 552). The opinion is not yet available. The public record of Al Kandari's CSRT and ARB hearings can be found here. Military commission prosecutors swore charges against Al Kandari, a Kuwaiti national, back in 2008. The charges can be found here. I will post and analyze Judge Kollar-Kotelly's opinion when it becomes available.
