A federal judge has ruled the Bush administration conducted “unlawful surveillance” of a defunct Islamic charity by wiretapping members of the organization without a court warrant. The judge ordered the government to pay more than $2.5 million in legal expenses accrued by lawyers and to pay $20,000 to the two targets of the illegal wiretapping, both members of the Al-Haramain charity. The plaintiffs learned of the eavesdropping only after the government erroneously sent them records.
