NEW YORK (AP) — A Libyan man facing trial in New York in the 1998 bombings of two U.S. embassies in Africa says his statements to the FBI were coerced from him and should be kept from his trial next month.
A written declaration signed by Abu Anas al-Libi last month was put in the public court file Tuesday. In it, the man who was snatched off the streets of Tripoli a year ago says he is falsely charged in the bombings in Kenya and Tanzania that killed 224 people, including a dozen Americans.
