NEW YORK (Reuters) - An alleged senior al Qaeda figure pleaded not guilty in federal court on Tuesday to allegations he was involved in the 1998 bombing of the U.S. embassy in Kenya.
The appearance of Nazih al-Ragye, better known as Abu Anas al-Liby, comes 10 days after a U.S. Army squad captured him in Tripoli and sent him to a U.S. Navy ship in the Mediterranean Sea for interrogation.
Al-Liby, wearing loose white sweat pants and a black sweatshirt, had his hands cuffed behind his back as he appeared in the federal court in New York. The court was packed with reporters and federal agents.
The case is United States of America v. Hage et al, U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York, No. 98-cr-01023.
