[JURIST] Moroccan Abdelghani Mzoudi [Wikipedia profile], acquitted by a Hamburg court in February on charges of helping the September 11 hijackers, flew home Tuesday to avoid deportation. Hamburg city officials had given Mzoudi two weeks to leave the country, or face arrest or deportation after the June 9 confirmation of the acquittal on appeal [JURIST report]. Hamburg authorities have said Mounir El Motassadeq [Wikipedia profile; JURIST report] will face the same treatment if he is acquitted of complicity in the attacks. A new German law, introduced January 1, makes it easier to expel suspected foreign militants. Reuters has more.
