Lawyers for the Canadian Security Intelligence Service argued Wednesday that they've already disclosed all the evidence they can to alleged terrorist Adil Charkaoui and any further information provided would constitute a breach of national security standards.A Federal Court judge asked Wednesday for a written explanation of the government's position on the disclosure of evidence in the case by next week.
Charkaoui returned to court Wednesday calling for immediate disclosure of the evidence in his file.In June, the Supreme Court of Canada slammed Canada's spy service for destroying the original evidence behind its allegation that the Montreal schoolteacher and father of three is a terrorist.
Charkaoui, accused of being an al-Qaida sleeper agent, has denied any terrorist ties and has been trying to halt the case through various legal motions.He faces deportation under a federal security certificate and his supporters say he risks torture if he is returned to Morocco.
