British Moazzam Begg leaves Belmarsh Prison in south London, after his release, Wednesday, Oct. 1, 2014. British prosecutors dropped terrorism charges Wednesday against the former Guantanamo Bay detainee who is a high-profile advocate for the rights of terror suspects. Begg, who has been in prison for seven months awaiting trial, had been due to stand trial next week on seven counts relating to the war in Syria. But in a last-minute reversal, prosecutors acknowledged that new evidence had emerged that undermined the case. (AP Photo/Lefteris Pitarakis)
