Trial Delayed for Shoe-Throwing Iraqi Journalist
In Iraq, the trial of the Iraqi journalist who threw his shoes at former President George W. Bush has been delayed until next month. Muntadhar al-Zaidi will stand trial in March on charges of assaulting a foreign leader. He faces fifteen years in prison.
Zaidi’s attorney and family have alleged abusive treatment since his imprisonment.
On Wednesday, Zaidi was applauded as he entered the courtroom.
