SCOTUS Rules Against Military Tribunal Plan
SCOTUS Rules Against Military Tribunal Plan
#1
In a 5-3 vote today, the Supreme Court of the US rejected President's Bush's plan to hold military tribunals for Guantanamo detainees, saying it "violated the U.S. Military Code of Justice and the Geneva Conventions".
The ruling also declared that the congressional resolution passed just after 9/11 did not grant President Bush as much power as he has claimed it did.
