Longest-held Guantánamo detainee released to Tunisia

Credited from: THEGUARDIAN

  • Ridah Bin Saleh al-Yazidi, a 59-year-old Tunisian national, has been released from Guantánamo Bay after over 22 years.
  • He was held without charge since the facility's opening in January 2002, appearing in well-known photographs from the detention center.
  • This release is part of a series of recent transfers, which include movements of other detainees to countries like Kenya and Malaysia.
  • Allegations against Yazidi included ties to al-Qaida, but these have faced scrutiny from human rights organizations.
  • The Pentagon did not disclose specifics regarding the arrangements for Yazidi’s reintegration into Tunisian society.
