Federal Judge Robert Doumar rejected the government’s motion to dismiss Hamdi’s bid for release. He said the sparse facts justify no detention of the American-born detainee held at Norfolk Naval Station Brig since April. The order notes Hamdi’s status as a U.S. citizen held without charges or access to a lawyer.
