A Special Forces soldier who
was blinded in an attack by an Al Qaeda terrorist slammed Canadian Prime
Minister Justin Trudeau’s [photo] agreement to pay $8 million to the terrorist who
wounded him.
Layne Morris was wounded and
another soldier was killed when Omar Khadr, then 15 years old, threw a grenade
at them. Khadr was arrested and imprisoned in Guantanamo Bay prison. In 2010 he
pleaded guilty to murder, attempted murder, providing material support for
terrorism, spying, and conspiracy, under the condition that his imprisonment be
in Canada.
In 2015 Khadr appealed his
conviction and stated that his admission of guilt was made under duress. He
sued the Canadian government for allegedly using illegal methods and abuse to
obtain intelligence from him and to extract his confession. His lawyers sought
$20 million in compensation.
Last week, Prime Minister
Trudeau announced that the government had reached an agreement with Khadr’s
lawyers in which he would be given $8 million and receive a formal apology from
the Canadian government.
Morris, who was blinded in one
eye in the attack, said that he was blindsided by the deal.
