Umar Farouk
Abdulmutallab, a Nigerian man who tried to set off an explosive hidden in his
underwear while aboard a U.S. airliner on Christmas Day in 2009, on Monday had
his life sentence upheld by a federal appeals court.
The 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals rejected
arguments by Abdulmutallab, known as the underwear bomber, that the trial judge
erred by letting him represent himself despite doubt about his competency and
by admitting incriminating statements he made without having first been read
his rights.
It also
rejected Abdulmutallab's argument that the life sentence was cruel and unusual
punishment.

Rossman, a lawyer for the defendant, had no immediate comment, his office said.
The case is
U.S. v. Abdulmutallab, 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, No. 12-1207.
