Seven Osamanauts on trial in Italy
An Italian prosecutor has asked a court to indict seven alleged Islamic militants suspected of links to Osama bin Laden's network. They have been charged with criminal association, supplying false documents and seeking to obtain and transport arms, explosives and chemicals. Among those charged is Essid Sami Ben Khemais, the alleged head of bin Laden's terrorist plans in Europe. Arrested in April, Ben Khemais is also believed to have met with Sept. 11 hijacker Mohammed Atta earlier this year in Spain.
