US backs down on Sudan
factoryBBC News, May 4, 1999
The United States has unfrozen the
assets of the owner of a Sudanese pharmaceutical factory it bombed
and totally destroyed last year.
A BBC Middle East analyst says the move is an implicit
acknowledgement that Washington has no evidence to justify its action
last August.
The decision to unconditionally
release Saudi businessman Salah Idris' assets was taken on Monday -
the day the US Government was legally required to respond to a suit
he filed in February against the US Treasury.
The suit said Washington had refused
to release Mr Idris' $24m Bank of America deposits, even though the
US could not prove its accusation that the factory in El Shifa,
Khartoum, was being used to make chemical weapons.
The US Government insisted the plant
was linked to the Islamic dissident, Osama bin Laden, whom it accused
of bombing two US embassies in Africa last year.
Speaking for Mr Idris, lawyer George
Salem said: "Fortunately, we live in a country where we have a system
of justice that requires that people produce evidence when someone is
accused of being a terrorist."
Mr Idris now plans to pursue the US
for full compensation for destroying the factory. The suit against
the treasury and a separate action against Bank of America will now
be dropped.
The US Justice department said it still believed the businessman
might be involved in international terrorism, but that it was not
prepared to compromise "sensitive information" for the sake of the
case.
A statement said: "There are things
that Mr Idris has associated himself with that I think that every
American would find reprehensible. ... and we will continue to
monitor his network for any potential threat to US
interests."
The factory was flattened on 20
August 1998 by 13 cruise missiles, just weeks after bomb attacks on
the US embassies in Kenya and Tanzania claimed the lives of 301
people.
The government of Sudan called the
action a "blunder" and said the factory produced everyday goods vital
for the Sudanese people.
"When a Jew, in America or in South Africa, talks to
his Jewish companions about 'our' government, he means the
government of Israel."
