The Libyan militant charged in the Benghazi attacks has pleaded not guilty to conspiracy. Ahmed Abu Khattala made his initial appearance in federal court in Washington today.
A grand jury indictment says Abu Khattala took part in a conspiracy to provide material support and resources to terrorists in the 2012 attacks that killed US Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans.
Abu Khattala was flown by a military helicopter from a Navy ship to Washington earlier today.
In court, he wore a two-piece black track suit and kept his hands behind his back. He looked impassively at the judge for most of a 10-minute court hearing.
