In July 1997, he was acquitted of this charge and instead convicted of having "encouraged terrorism", a charge that had not been brought against him in the trial and against which he had no opportunity to defend himself.
تمت تبرئته في تموز/يوليو 1997 من تلك التهمة ثم أُدينَ بدلا منها بتهمة "تشجيع الإرهاب" وهي التهمة التي لم يكن لديه فرصة في الدفاع عن نفسه أمام المحكمة.
