Bradley Manning must face 'aiding the enemy' charge
A US military judge has refused to dismiss the most serious charge against Private Bradley Manning, the alleged source of Wikileaks revelations.
The charge of aiding the enemy - one off 22 charges he faces - carries a life sentence in prison.
Col Denise Lind ruled against a defence argument that the government had not properly alleged that Pte Manning intended to help al-Qaeda.
Pte Manning's court martial is set to begin on 21 September in Maryland.
