Mohamed Alaradi was arrested and tortured in the United Arab Emirates along with 9 other Libyan expats. Six of them, including his brother, have been imprisoned over two years. They now finally have a trial, which is alleged to be unfair.

The US ought to call on its ally to stop doing this sort of thing, but if it tried to, the example of Guantanamo would make the position hypocritical. Meanwhile, I wonder if the US is partly responsible for their arrests.
