In response, Whitling argues no evidence of any “nefarious activity” by Khadr has been shown and his client has nothing to answer for. The “evidence” has no relevance to the case and comes nowhere near to any kind of “convincing proof,” Whitling says. Ultimately, he argues the American applicants have fallen well short of meeting the requirements for an injunction. The Utah judgment was almost entirely dependent on Khadr’s confession to having killed Speer. Khadr never defended against the Utah case — he was in jail in Canada serving out the sentence handed him by the commission.
