#1 "to give the defense more time to prepare its arguments"
Read: they needed more time to find an Imam willing to buck the "Govt" and issue a fatwa to cover their asses.

As for whether these are the right guys we'll never know for sure here in Rantburg. BUT... unless young King Mumble-Mumble has done a 180, these guys are toast.

âI reject all of these accusations. I deny them,â said 23-year-old Mohamed El-Omari. âI havenât killed anyone.â

"Well," stated El-Omari sheepishly, "that's almost true. I didn't intend to kill anyone. Not anyone human, at least. Just those nasty infidels and kaffir."

Judging that El-Omari had suffered enough, and in accordance with the Shari'ah, Imam Jihadi ibn Muhammad issued a fatwa extolling El-Omari and his associates as soldiers of the Umma and declaring any judgement brought against them invalid.
"Look, we can't send these guys to jail," he said. "They made a mistake. Their hearts were in the right place."
