Terrror suspect gets victim status in Polish probe

None

A lawyer for a Saudi terror suspect says his client has been granted the status of victim in a Polish investigation. That marks a legal advance in the detainee's efforts to show he was mistreated by interrogators.

 

Legal experts say Poland's move to grant the status of victim to Abn al-Rahim al-Nashiri recognizes the validity of his claims even as US courts have refused to allow cases involving rendition to move forward for national security reasons. (AP)
