U.S. military officials announced they have scheduled the equivalent of a grand jury hearing next week for a reservist whose guilty plea in the Abu Ghraib prison abuse scandal was rejected earlier this month.

An officer will receive evidence and then recommend whether to send the case to a court-martial, or military trial.
