US judge rules against Saudi Arabia in Sept. 11 case
Tehran (KNA) - A US judge has ruled against Saudi Arabia’s bid to dismiss lawsuits, asserting that the monarchy must pay billions of dollars in damages as it helped plan the September 11, 2001, attacks.
US District Judge George Daniels said in Manhattan, New York, on Wednesday that the plaintiffs' allegations "narrowly articulate a reasonable basis," Reuters reported.
Daniels has been tasked to oversee litigation against Riyadh by the families of those killed, some 25,000 people injured, and numerous businesses.
