(FILES)This undated file photo obtained 01 June, 2004 from the Florida Department of Motor Vehicles shows Jose Padilla. US justice authorities plan to announce the indictment 22 November 2005, Padilla, a terror suspect with US citizenship held for three years without charge as an "enemy combatant," CNN reported.Padilla was arrested in Chicago in May 2002 and US authorities said he was planning to set off a radiological -dirty- bomb and accused him of having links to Osama bin Laden-s Al-Qaeda network. A former gang member and convert to Islam also known as Abdullah al-Mujahir, Padilla appealed to the Supreme Court against his detention, challenging the US president-s power to hold US citizens indefinitely without charges or trial.The top US court is also considering a lower court ruling in September in support of Padilla-s detention as an "enemy combatant" in the US "war on terror" which effectively stripped him of his constitutional rights.
