Hearing of Dr. Aafia case adjourned till Monday

WASHINGTON: The hearing of the case of Dr. Aafia Siddiqui, detained and being tried in US over alleged charges of attempt to murder US troops in Afghanistan, has been adjourned until Monday, Geo news reported.

Two more witnesses from prosecution were questioned on Friday during hearing of her case here in New York case.

One witness claimed she got training of triggering pistol in Boston some 19 years ago but he was sorry over production of record or evidence as proof of his claim when asked by defense counsel.

He said he regained knowledge of Dr. Aafia when FBI personnel came and showed him her picture some two weeks ago.

The video footage of an Afghan eyewitness was also produced in court claiming that she opened fire on US troops with M4 rifle but he denied accepting seeing her holding rifle in her hand.

His video testimony was unlike his written account, which stated that he had seen Aafia holding and firing on US troops.
