| KUWAIT CITY: The wife of Al Qaedaâs leading spokesman Suleiman Abu Ghaith has broken a two-year silence to say her husband is not a terrorist and should be tried in his own country Kuwait. âHe is with Islam and is not against Kuwait. He was an ideal husband who loved Kuwait and served it in the most difficult times, and if he made a mistake, only the Almighty doesnât,â âUmm Yussifâ told Al-Rai al-Aam in an interview published Wednesday. Abu Ghaith, reportedly detained in Iran along with top members of Osama bin Ladenâs network, was stripped of his Kuwaiti nationality in October 2001 because of links to the September 11 terror attacks on the United States. âHe did not harm or kill anyone,â said an emotional Umm Yussif. âHeâs not a terrorist, merely a spokesman.â The daily said Abu Ghaithâs wife pleaded for her husband to be returned to Kuwait, should he be detained in Iran, and not extradited elsewhere, âbecause he is a genuine Kuwaiti and his wife and children are Kuwaiti.â |
