Laden son-in-law found guilty

A New York jury on Tuesday found Osama bin Laden's son-in-law and former al-Qaeda spokesman Suleiman Abu Ghaith guilty on three counts of conspiracy to kill Americans and supporting terrorists.
The 48-year-old preacher from Kuwait, whose three-week trial has been the most high-profile al-Qaeda case to reach a US federal court, now faces life behind bars.
US prosecutors had alleged Abu Ghaith was an Qaeda insider and Laden's right-hand man and inspired a new generation of terrorists as the group's main messenger after the 9/11 attacks.
Abu Ghaith denied the charges but is most famous for appearing with Bin Laden in a video on September 12, 2001 claiming the attacks on US targets that killed nearly 3,000 people the day before.  Abu Ghaith was arrested in Turkey in 2013 and sent to Jordan, where he was transferred to US custody.
