AFTER OVER 22 YEARS GOOGLE STILL HAD NO PHOTO OF RIDAH- JUST THIS EFFIGY—Ridah Bin Saleh al Yazidi- before his 22 year long illegal ordeal

A total of 26 people are still being held at the prison that the US promised to shut down in 2009

The Pentagon has announced the repatriation of a Tunisian detainee, who had been held at Guantanamo Bay prison since its opening in 2002.

Ridah Bin Saleh al Yazidi was among the first terrorist suspects brought to Guantanamo Bay on its first day on January 11, 2002. Despite spending 24 years at the facility, located within a US naval base in Cuba, he was never formally charged.

US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin had notified Congress of his intention to support the release of al Yazidi in January this year, the Department of Defense said in a statement on Monday.

And now “in consultation with our partner in Tunisia, we completed the requirements for responsible transfer,” the statement read.

According to the Pentagon, al Yazidi was airlifted from Guantanamo Bay to Tunisia in a covert operation. No details of the security arrangements surrounding the 59-year-old’s return to his home country were released.

The Tunisian had been captured in Pakistan, near the Afghanistan border, shortly after the 9/11 attacks as part of a group of 30 men, some of whom were believed to have been bodyguards of Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden.

A leaked 2007 prison assessment described al Yazidi as a potentially dangerous detainee, who exhibited hostility toward the guards. However, in 2010, a task force under the administration of then US President Barack Obama cleared the Tunisian for release to another country, stating that he could not be prosecuted for war crimes.

Ian Moss, a former State Department official involved in detainee transfers, told the New York Times that al Yazidi “could have been gone a while ago but for Tunisian foot-dragging.”

Detainee held without charge at Guantanamo since 2002 released

Tunisia had initially been deemed unsafe or unwilling to accept him, while the detainee refused to discuss his transfer with other countries, Moss explained.

Al Yazidi’s release comes as part of the push by the administration of outgoing US President Joe Biden to reduce the prison population at Guantanamo Bay. The latest case was the fourth detainee transfer from the facility in two weeks.

JUSTICE FOR RIDAH!.. DEMAND THAT HIS US JAILORS BE JAILED FOR 22 YEARS!

The Tunisian’s departure leaves 26 detainees at Guantanamo Bay, down from 40 when Biden took office. Among them, 14 are approved for transfer to other countries, while another nine are in pretrial proceedings or convicted of war crimes. This means that the Biden administration will likely also be unable to achieve the goal of closing the prison announced by Obama back in 2009.

    “what is happening today in the northern Gaza Strip, particularly in Jabalia and its camp, is a complete genocide.”

    First lesbian who seeks redress for the Spanish fascist repression is still persecuted for being gay, thereforeshe is known only as M.C.D.

    Prosecution: “I declare that M. C. D. is a homosexual and a rebel to her family ”
    The first lesbian who seeks compensation after being jailed and punished by the Spanish State was sentenced without her counsel making any defense.

    M.C.D. feels that she has almost a moral duty to address the media. But she does reluctantly and with limitations: neither her name nor place of residence must be made public.

    That process is still not finished, in which a 16 year old girl was arrested, paroled, and a year later as she had ‘not reformed’ judged and convicted at the age of 17  with being a lesbian…. Continue reading “Jailed for being Lesbian at 17, Shunned all her life, Seeks redress”
