The Associated Press: Spanish judge frees US al-Qaida suspect: "Spanish judge ordered the release Thursday of a U.S. citizen of Algerian origin who was detained on suspicion of financing al-Qaida's North Africa affiliate, citing a lack of evidence but keeping the investigation open.
Judge Santiago Pedraz took away suspect Mohamed Omar Dehbi's passport, barred him from leaving Spain and ordered him to check in with police daily.
Dehbi was arrested Tuesday in a Barcelona suburb. After a hearing Thursday in which Dehbi testified, Pedraz said there was insufficient evidence to back up police allegations that Dehbi financed al-Qaida by sending money to an associate in Algeria who is wanted in Spain on terror-related charges.
Dehbi's name was originally erroneously spelled Debhi by Spanish authorities."
