Omar Khadr: Public Safety Minister Vic Toews

Federal Government Dept: TORONTO -- The federal government's demand to view videotaped interviews psychiatrists did with Omar Khadr is a "spurious" reason to delay his transfer to a Canadian prison, a lawyer for the convicted war criminal said Friday, according to Winnipeg Free Press. In the letter dated July 19, Toews demanded copies of videos of interviews two psychiatrists did with Khadr, who is serving his eight-year sentence at the U.S. military prison in Guantanamo Bay and omar Khadr's lawyers call his transfer delay 'unreasonable.' POSTMEDIA NEWS ARCHIVES "It's, in our view, a transparent attempt at trying to justify delay, which is going to fall flat," said John Norris after getting a copy of a letter Public Safety Minister Vic Toews sent to U.S. Defence Secretary Leon Panetta demanding the materials.
