http://www.english.hadhramaut.info Condition of al-Moayad and aide stable [The Source: www.sabanews.net - 21/2/2009] The health condition of Sheikh Mohammad al-Moayad and his aide Mohammad Zayed is stable, deputy Yemen's ambassador to the United States has confirmed.   Under President Ali Abdullah Saleh's orders, deputy ambassador Yahya Abdullah al-Showkani and Waleed Mohammad al-Shehari, of the embassy staff in Washington, paid a visit Thursday to the prison where the two Yemeni nationals have been jailed for over five years in Colorado. The visit, which came with Yemen's efforts to defend the two and release them as soon as possible, was aimed to see the condition of the two Yemeni detainees. Earlier the embassy sent notes to the US authorities asking them to transfer sheikh al-Moayad to a medical center to care of him. But the prison administration replied his condition was stable. Sheikh Muhammad al-Moayad and his aide Mohammad Zayed were arrested in 2003 in Germany and extradited to the United States. They face alleged accusations related to terrorist financing. However, In October 2008, terrorism convictions against the two were reversed by a US appeal court. A federal appeals panel in New York in October 2008 overturned their convictions in a prominent terrorism case once hailed by the Bush administration as a significant blow to Al Qaeda. This was based on that sheikh Al-Moayad and his assistant had been deprived of a fair trial because of errors by the presiding judge. The appeals court judges found that the defendants, Sheik Mohammed Ali Hassan al-Moayad and his aide, Mohammed Mohsen Yahya Zayed, did not receive a fair trial because the trial judge, Sterling Johnson Jr., allowed the jury to hear inflammatory testimony and other evidence that prejudiced the defendants' case.
