From Times Staff and Wire Reports

The prosecution rested its murder case against Mir Aimal Kasi, who is charged with killing two men and injuring three others in a shooting rampage outside CIA headquarters. Kasi’s lawyers called no witnesses in this phase of the trial but did not formally rest their case. The case is likely to go to the jury in Fairfax on Monday. Kasi, 33, of Quetta, Pakistan, has pleaded not guilty to 10 charges stemming from the attack outside the headquarters in McLean on Jan. 25, 1993. Prosecutors allege that Kasi fired an AK-47 assault rifle into several cars as they waited at a stoplight outside the CIA complex at rush hour.
