Germany has chosen to deport and release Mounir al-Motassadek from prison, a native of Morocco. He was charged with being an accomplice in the September 11th terrorists attacks on the United States that took place 17 years ago. Motassadek has spent nearly as long in prison for his assistance in the terror attacks despite denying involvement. He was the first person to be charged with taking part in 9/11 just months afterwards. Motassadek is said to have been close friends with one of the alleged hijackers of a plane involved in striking the World Trade Towers. Motassadek claimed to have not known his friends' intentions, only assisting them out of friendship. He did indeed admit to spending time at an al-Qaeda camp that was located in Afghanistan prior to 9/11. Motassadek was first charged in Germany due to moving there in 1993 from his homeland to study electrical engineering. His sentence of 15 years was the maximum sentence German courts were able to punish him with.
