RABAT, Morocco (AP) - Three former detainees at the U.S. naval base in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, were convicted in Morocco for creating a criminal group and forging documents, the state news agency reported.
The criminal court in Sale, near the capital, Rabat, sentenced Mohamed Souleymani Laalami to five years in prison for creating a criminal group, the MAP news agency reported late Friday.
Two other defendants, Najib Lahssini and Mohammed Ouali, were sentenced to three years each on charges of falsifying documents, the news agency said. It said the Moroccan court case was unrelated to their detention at Guantanamo, where the three men spent up to 4 1/2 years in U.S. custody.
