Appeals court says 28-year sentence is too lenient for Libyan militant convicted in Benghazi attack

A U.S. appeals court ruled that a 28-year sentence for Libyan militant Ahmed Abu Khatallah, convicted in the 2012 Benghazi attack that killed Ambassador Chris Stevens and three others, is unreasonably lenient and ordered resentencing. The court emphasized the severity of Khatallah’s role in the premeditated attack, including his efforts to prevent security forces from intervening.
