ACLU challenges detention of U.S. citizen held as enemy combatant
The Pentagon detains a U.S. citizen accused of fighting for Islamic State as an unlawful enemy combatant after surrendering to U.S. backed forces in Syria. The ACLU filed a habeas petition arguing the detention violates rights to counsel and judicial review. Officials have not charged him or disclosed location, while ICRC confirms access occurred. The case tests if the administration will move detainees to civilian courts or military prisons.
