GOP Senate candidate blasts NY trial for Mohammed



D.H.
Boston (AP)  -- Republican Senate candidate Scott Brown wants President Barack Obama to overrule the attorney general on trying the accused Sept. 11 mastermind in New York City.
  
Brown says Attorney General Eric Holder was mistaken this week when he announced Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and four others would be tried in a Manhattan federal court.
  
The men have been held in a military prison at Guantanamo Bay in Cuba.
  
Brown is a military lawyer as well as a state senator. He said in statement Friday that trying the men in a civilian court "will be a propaganda boon for al-Qaida."
  
He also says it will give terrorists advantages through the legal discovery process.
  
Brown is running to succeed the late Sen. Edward Kennedy. Businessman Jack E. Robinson also is seeking the GOP nomination.
