SDNY COURTHOUSE,
May 15 –
A Freedom of Information Act
request for records initially
withheld about the
interrogation(s) of Abu
Zubaydah has given rise to
litigation.
On May 14, U.S. District Court
for the Southern District of
New York Judge Paul A.
Engelmayer held a proceeding.
Inner City Press covered
it.
Judge
Engelmayer said,
diplomatically, that the US
Attorney's Office had some
difficulty in getting records
from the agencies in
Washington under the last
Administration and asked the
AUSA about cooperation on this
request.
The
response was that things are
moving smoothly. Judge
Engelmayer wished the parties,
including Raymond Bonner
working on a documentary, luck
in getting things "across the
goal line."
The case is
Bonner v. Federal Bureau Of
Investigation et al.,
21-cv-2166 (Engelmayer)
