Such determination is to be made within 48 hours. The bill proceeds to define an "unprivileged enemy belligerent" as an individual who: # has engaged in hostilities against the United States or its coalition partners; # has purposely and materially supported hostilities against the United States or its coalition partners; or # was a part of al Qaeda at the time of capture. The bill authorizes the President to establish a "high-value detainee interrogation group" consisting of executive branch personnel with expertise in national security, terrorism, intelligence, interrogation, or law enforcement to perform the interrogation and status determination. The bill defines that the paramount purpose of such interrogations is the protection of U.S. civilians and facilities through thorough and professional interrogation for intelligence purposes. It further prohibits the use of Department of Justice (DOJ) appropriated funds to prosecute an unprivileged enemy belligerent in an Article III court. Finally, the bill allows for the detention of a person who is deemed to be an unprivileged enemy belligerent without criminal charges or trial for the duration of hostilities against the United States or its coalition partners in which the individual has engaged or which the individual has purposely and materially supported. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Enemy Belligerent Interrogation, Detention, and Prosecution Act of 2010」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
