Washington, D.C. – Today, Congress is expected to pass bipartisan legislation that finalizes the historic bilateral agreement between the U.S. and Sudan in which the East African nation is held accountable for its role in the deadly 1998 terrorist bombings of two American embassies in Kenya and Tanzania. This landmark legislation would mark the conclusion of a decades-long fight for justice by the American families of those injured or killed in the attacks and represent a pivotal shift toward democracy for Sudan under new leadership.

A convicted terrorist is now free and living in the United Kingdom after a judge agreed he was too obese to survive the Chinese coronavirus in jail.
“Adel Abdel Bary, 60, had spent 21 years in a New Jersey prison for his role in the 1998 al Qaeda bombings of two US embassies in Africa that killed 224 people, including 12 Americans,” the
New York Postreported Friday.
In granting his release, U.S. District Judge Lewis A. Kaplan wrote, “Defendant’s obesity and somewhat advanced age make COVID-19 [Chinese coronavirus] significantly more risky to him than to the average person.”
Prosecutors did not agree that his age made him more at risk for the coronavirus, but conceded that his body mass index of 36 did make him more vulnerable.
