| Chile jails Pakistani suspect again |
| 2010-05-23 |
| SANTIAGO: A Chilean court ordered back to jail on Saturday a Pakistani man who had been charged and briefly detained after traces of explosives were found on him as he visited the US embassy, officials said. The court designated 28-year-old Mauhannas Saif ur Rehnab Khan “a danger to society' and revoked his freedom after he was released last week on probation following charges of illegally possessing weapons, but not of violating an anti-terror law. The court was responding to an appeal filed by prosecutors on Thursday against Khan's release that asked he be placed under preventative detention. |
