By Joseph Ax NEW YORK, March 25 (Reuters) - A federal
jury in New York on Tuesday began deliberating whether or **t to convict a son-in-law of al Qaeda founder Osama bin
Laden of conspiring to kill Americans and other terrorism-related charges. Prosecutors have accused Suleiman Abu Ghaith of acting as a spokesman and recruiter for al Qaeda in the days after the Sept. 11, 2001 hijacked plane attacks, which killed nearly 3,000 people and destroyed the World Trade Center in New York. The 48-year-old Kuwaiti-born preacher is the highest-profile bin
Laden adviser to face trial in a
U.S. civilian court since the attacks. Bin
Laden was killed by
U.S. forces in May 2011 at his hideout in Pakistan.
